The accusations of sexual assault against Julio Iglesias, which came to light yesterday, have provoked a rapid wave of responses from various political and institutional entities demanding the withdrawal of all public recognitions of the singer. The outcry has intensified following a controversial social media message from the president of the Community of Madrid, Isabel Díaz Ayuso, in defense of the artist.
The raped and attacked women are in Iran, with the complicit silence of the far-left.

The Community of Madrid will never contribute to the discrediting of artists, much less of the most universal singer of all: Julio Iglesias.
The PSOE, through the social network X and using the image and voice of Meritxell Tizón, has addressed the Almeida government to withdraw the 'favorite son' recognition granted to Julio Iglesias with the PP majority.
We ask the Almeida government to withdraw the 'favorite son' award granted to Julio Iglesias with the PP majority.
