This is how he got into the car amid the outrage of neighbors

New footage has emerged of Pedro Sanchez fleeing the wrath of his neighbors in Paiport. In them we see for the first time how the President gets into a car to leave the Valencian city, one of the most affected by DANA, eluding the townspeople, and, having left King Philip VI and regional president Carlos Mason. It was last Sunday, November 3, when Sanchez appeared in Paiport, five days after the hurricane caused enormous destruction in the Valencia metropolitan area and killed at least 214 people. Residents, dissatisfied with the government’s response to the disaster and more concerned with a jurisdictional dispute with the regional executive branch than with securing the necessary manpower for reconstruction work, exploded against the president.

Images of civil outrage over Pedro Sánchez, to the point where he decided to flee while the king remained in full view of his neighbors, have gone around the world in recent days. But until now, no one has seen the exact moment when Sanchez got into the car to leave Paiporta. Surrounded by his bodyguards and Moncloa’s head of protocol, Jorge Mijangos Blanco, Sánchez managed to get to his car to leave the Valencian city. The pictures show Sanchez getting into a black SsangYong Rexton armored car – the brand now called KGM – a vehicle particularly suited to traversing difficult terrain, so the usual official Audi A8 was not used for this visit.

Sanchez got into one of two cars hit by neighbors on the road in Paiporta, namely the one with license plate 1754 MLT. The presidential motorcade included two black SUVs, which were beaten by neighbors. The sister car, registration 1752 MLT, received the most hits, while the Rexton in which Sanchez left Paiporto had a damaged rear window.

After leaving Paiporta, Sánchez became a victim of himself, attributing the incidents to “well-organized ultra-groups that tried to cause as much damage as possible to the authorities present there.” The Guardia Civil later identified the men who tried to lynch him and concluded that they had no connection with the “extreme right,” denying the president’s history. As a result of the attacks on Pedro Sánchez’s car, the Civil Guard detained three people, two of whom were later released.
