Escape plan to the Dominican Republic: the theory linking Sánchez to Begoña's departure
In recent days, a theory has been gaining traction in digital media claiming that Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez devised a plan to get his vvife, Begoña Gómez, out of the country using his own policies. The alleged strategy would point to the Dominican Republic, a country with which Spain has no extradition treaty, according to supporters of the hypothesis.
A carefully drawn plan or just a rumor?
Those spreading the theory insist it is not a rumor but a "perfectly drawn plan." However, no concrete evidence has so far been presented to back the accusation. The Government has made no statements on the matter, and the opposition has avoided commenting.
Some analysts have compared the situation to the Ceaușescu regime, where the dictator's vvife, Elena Ceaușescu, was accused of holding titles without merit. A comparison that, while striking, lacks any solid historical basis.
The question that remains is whether this theory will have any real impact on Spanish politics or fade away like others before it. Meanwhile, the official silence only fuels speculation.
