The PSOE remains mired in the crisis caused by the “Salazar Affair.” A crisis in several aspects: reputation, credibility, as well as communication. In this last instance, an attempt is made to reverse the sense of inaction which the administration projects and which has permeated … The party, within the formation, sent an internal memorandum today – to its officials and members – trying to contain the internal unrest and Assumed not to be ‘rising to the task’.
In the above-mentioned text, which ABC has access to, the training provides a detailed description of the development of events as he realizes that His performance ‘must improve’. This was after the victims complained that the party had not communicated with them, four months after they submitted complaints through the internal Feraz channel.
Furthermore, the party describes the behaviors that appear in the complaints as “Disgusting, intolerable, and inconsistent with the values of the Socialist Party.”. “It pains us that this happened,” they say in the document dated Friday, December 5, in which they provide a detailed explanation of the events of recent months and the measures implemented by the party.
In it, they acknowledge their responsibility in treating the victims. “We regret that we did not provide adequate support to people who filed complaints,” they say. In the internal memorandum, they claim their commitment to “further improve the fight against harassment of women and develop equality policies” and state that they are the first party to have a “protocol” to this effect, although it has proven ineffective in the “Salazar case.”
“We realize that being an innovative system requires continuous improvements.”They acknowledge this, while committing to “not wasting resources until the system is optimal.” At this point, they report that the complaints against Salazar are being “analyzed and compared” by the Anti-Harassment Commission “within the specified deadline” and their conclusions will be included in a report containing “proposed measures to be adopted” which will be sent to the complainants.
At this point, the Socialists became bolder and asserted that they “will not allow the Socialist Party’s commitment to eliminating violence against women in all its forms to be questioned.” They point out that “it is less, if possible, by those who belittle it, deny it and do not fight it,” in a clear reference to the People’s Party.
