Feijóo will send the entirety of his conversation with Mazón to Judge Dana through another notarial document.

“I will continue to collaborate with the judges and I am not going to do what the government is doing, by saying that the judges are procrastinating, delete messages or change cell phones. I leave that to the Government, the President of the Government and his collaborators. If the judge wants to know what the messages are to know what happened in Valencia that night, have no doubt that, in the same way that I collaborated, I will continue to do so,” he said in this interview, the first that the opposition leader will grant in 2026.

Feijóo already sent Judge Dana on December 23 the messages that Mazón wrote to him during the hours of the disaster via WhatsApp, although he did not include their responses and limited himself to contextualizing them.

Judge Dana signed a new order on December 29 to offer him the opportunity to also provide these messages and Feijóo will accept the proposal. “As soon as I have a notary on duty, I will summon him again, I will show him my cell phone again, he will transcribe the messages and I will transmit them to the judge,” he explained. The leader of the PP He refused to evaluate the judge’s decisions to “reinstate” the “democratic building” that, according to him, the government of Pedro Sánchez decided to “dynatomize” by adhering to “the theory of law” and by not respecting the separation of powers.

“There are many people in the Government who have not been asked anything”

Although he admitted he didn’t understand as much interest in her private conversations. “I don’t know, but hey, it’s not up to me to ask questions, it’s up to me to answer them”he pointed out when asked about it. “It’s surprising that an opposition leader, 450 kilometers from a tragedy like this, could have any significance in terms of his decisions or his actions, isn’t it? At the end, There are a lot of people in government who haven’t been asked anything.… but it is a judicial decision,” he added.

Feijóo thus claimed to have a “clear conscience” before his testimony on January 9, which will ultimately be done by videoconference from Congress. “Not only do I have a clear conscience, but I have nothing to hideand it’s curious that the problem is that an opposition leader is worried about what’s happening in a part of his country,” he added. “If you want to take the text messages and contextualize them, that’s what they’re for. Now, if you want to decontextualize them, honestly, that’s not my problem.

On the other hand, he took the opportunity to dishonor the Minister of Defense, Margarita Robles, for her “paper” by demanding that she apologize for allegedly questioning the work of the UME and stressed that he was “surprised” that she was willing to “lose so much prestige” for “obedience” to Sánchez. Likewise, he reminded him that the first troops to arrive in Alfafar were French firefighters three days after the floods, and he reproached him for the “anger” he had aroused towards some residents of Paiporta who lost everything.

“Are you going to ask for responsibilities? Who? The only one to have collaborated with Justice? Who gives what is asked? The one who, at 8 p.m. in the afternoon, faced with the absolute lack of information from the Spanish government on the opposition, contacted the Generalitat to try to find out what was happening since the government did not give me any information? He is probably the first politician to contact the president (Mazón) about the Spanish government. And he is probably the first politician in Spain who on Thursday, leaving Cecopi, requested the declaration of a state of national emergency,” he added.

On the other hand, he said that he had already “clarified” before the judge that he was wrong on October 31, 2024 when he stated that he had been informed by Mazón in “real time” since Monday, October 28 because he was referring to Tuesday 29, thus denying that he knowingly lied when he made this statement to the media.

Concerning the Valencian PP, Feijóo congratulated himself on having “resolved a crisis in a completely satisfactory manner” and he recognized that the new president of the Generalitat Valenciana, Juanfran Pérez Llorca, “favorably surprised” him during his first days in office.

He revealed that he is “a pedestrian politician” due to his 10 years at the head of the Finestrat City Hall, where he was councilor between 2003 and 2025, and that he is a person “used to reaching agreements” in the Corts in his role as parliamentary spokesperson in the current legislature. “In such a short time” since the inauguration session of November 27 Feijóo considers that Llorca “showed his temperament” in the face of “a very delicate situation” to “unite again socially the Valencian Community”, and welcomed his meeting with Sánchez at the Palace of Moncloa, the new additions to his Executive, the call to associations of victims of dana and the visit to Paiporta.

Feijóo concluded that Pérez Llorca has “the confidence” of the party to “prove its management capacity during the remaining two years of the legislature”.“, organization and unification of the party” to aspire to be head of the list in the regional elections scheduled for 2027. And he justified the decision to approve a transition commission to give more “clothing” to organic changes, in particular the appointment of the new secretary general of the PPCV, Carlos Gil.
