Rita Maestre Speaks Out on Errejón Scandal

Published: 2024-11-11

Rita Maestre, spokesperson for Más Madrid, has publicly addressed the scandal surrounding Íñigo Errejón, who has been accused of sexual misconduct by several women.

In an interview on the program 'Salvados', Maestre expressed her disappointment and anger, stating that she wishes the allegations had surfaced earlier, as no political contribution is worth the harm caused.

Errejón, a prominent figure in Spanish politics, resigned abruptly following anonymous accusations on social media and a formal complaint by actress Elisa Mouliaá.

Maestre, who was once in a relationship with Errejón, emphasized her ignorance of his alleged behavior, describing the situation as a personal and political betrayal.

She praised Más Madrid's response to the crisis as "impeccable" and stressed the importance of addressing such issues openly to prevent recurrence.

The scandal has prompted Maestre to reevaluate her past with Errejón, highlighting the need for transparency and accountability in political circles.
