Sánchez’s Congress Provocation and Opposition’s Passivity Over Migration Crisis

Sánchez mocks opposition in Congress while migration crisis worsens

A defining paradox marks these days: while the migration crisis intensifies at the southern border and the Prime Minister is accused of yielding to Segarro, his appearance in Congress has become a spectacle of contempt for the opposition. Critics argue that Sánchez mocks his adversaries, laughs at half the country, and faces no consequences.

Accusations of submission to Segarro

The debate centers on border management. Critics claim Sánchez handed over the Sahara to Segarro without Congress’s approval and gave Gibraltar to the UK. They accuse the Prime Minister of acting as Rabat’s puppet, even ordering military personnel to open gates to create a crisis that wears down the opposition. Comparisons to the 11M attacks are inevitable: back then, protests erupted under claims of government lies. Now, critics say the opposition fails to mobilize citizens, noting that Aznar stated the masterminds were not in distant mountains, suggesting the opposition should say they are not in distant steppes.

The economy as backdrop

Meanwhile, the economy remains the backdrop. A self-employed worker can earn 3,000 euros monthly, while an IMV recipient receives 733. Inequality worsens and public debt grows, yet public debate focuses on the border. The government is accused of implementing savage liberal capitalism, with the Prime Minister as Spain’s most pro-capitalist leader. Paradoxically, opposition voters, it is claimed, benefited most over eight years, yet demonstrate only lightly. Sánchez’s past role as a Caja Madrid advisor during bank bailouts is also raised without conclusive proof.

The role of the military and security forces

The military and security forces are accused of passivity, acting as mere mercenaries of their public salary. Critics argue they obey orders from a government acting against national interests, potentially committing treason by trinc them. The question is whether citizens will react or if passivity becomes the new normal. The feeling that the official narrative prevails without resistance grows stronger. For how long?
