The former advisor to the Ministry of Transport Koldo García has refused to answer the questions of the first senator who questioned him this Monday within the framework of the investigation commission into the buying and selling of masks during the pandemic. “For common sense, let justice decide,” said García, accused in the National Court in the Delorme operation. In one of his brief interventions, García assured that he has “a very clear conscience.”
Punctual to the 11:00 a.m. meeting, the commission table has seated José Luis Ábalos' former advisor in a corner. The first speaker was the spokesperson for the Navarro People's Union (UPN), María Caballero, from the Mixed Group. For a moment it seemed that Koldo García would intervene, but after clarifying that he was perfectly contactable, given the information that there were problems in being contacted by Parliament, silence began.
The UPN senator has begun to ask him about the PSOE politicians who decided that he would go to the PSN lists for the town of Huarte or the Navarro Parliament in 2015. García has taken advantage of his right not to testify. Caballero has stated her questions and only a hint of indignation has made García respond twice. It happened when the senator asked Koldo García about statements in which she recommended that third parties look like José Luis Ábalos. “What did they have to learn?” “The same as you,” García responded bluntly. The last question was about whether he has a clear conscience. “Very calm,” the appearing party responded.
Koldo García had begun by saying: “At no time have I wanted to avoid or not appear anywhere. I am a completely traceable person, anyone can locate me, everyone has my phone number. The State Security Forces and Corps have located me and I appear in court every fifteen days. “That I can't be located…” García later said that he does not know if he is still a member of the PSOE, in response to the question already asked by Caballero. Only before, in a question about when his socialist militancy began, Koldo said: “My aitite (grandfather) and my aita (father) were already linked to the PSOE.”
