Abascal, after the reform of the crime of sedition announced by Sánchez: "Traitor"

MADRID, 10 Nov. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The leader of Vox, Santiago Abascal, described the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, as a "traitor" this Thursday, after his announcement to reform the crime of sedition, which will be called "aggravated public disorder" and with which the Executive intends that the new criminal type be "more or less homologous" with other European democracies".

"Traitor", Abascal has reacted in a Twitter message after learning of Sánchez's announcement, an opinion that has also been seconded, in similar terms, by the leader of Vox in Catalonia, Ignacio Garriga, who has written on social networks that "there is no biggest traitor" than the President of the Government and Secretary General of the PSOE. "History will judge him for it and we while we will defend Spain", he stressed.

This Thursday, Sánchez announced in an interview on La Sexta that the PSOE and United We Can present a legislative initiative in Congress tomorrow to reform the crime of sedition, which will be renamed "aggravated public disorder."

He has also pointed out that the new criminal type will be "more or less homologous" with other European democracies such as Germany, France, Italy, Belgium and Switzerland and the penalties for these crimes will be those that govern the criminal codes of those countries and has denied that this is an ERC requirement to approve the PGE as Gamarra maintains.
