Palomera's comments follow recent statements from PP leaders concerning the investigations.

She stressed the seriousness of the situation and the public's right to know the truth. The interview highlighted the growing political tension in Spain and the public demand for accountability. Palomera's call for transparency reflects a broader sentiment among many Spaniards who are seeking clarity on these crucial issues.
