He Council of Ministers of the Spanish Government will give the approval this Tuesday Action Plan for Democracy and Against Fraud which President Pedro Sánchez anticipated before the summer and which he hopes will receive the support of the PP.
The government wants to agree on a whole range of measures that will help guarantee the transparency, independence and pluralism of the media in order to guarantee “truthful information” to citizens.
He announced it yesterday, Monday, in the presence of the delegates: Socialist senators and members of the European Parliament meet in Congress on the occasion of the start of the new political course.
Sánchez stressed that this plan “stems” from the Constitution, “which defends the right of citizens to truthful information”, and also from the measures approved by the European Parliament and by the European Commission itself. For this reason, he said he is confident that he will have the support of ‘all democrats’, he stated, referring to the PP.
The aim of the action plan is to provide “greater transparency, more plurality and greater guarantees” to the Cortes Generales and the “information ecosystem” and to confront the “misinformation” and the “mud machine” that are besieging democracy.
