The Spanish courts are planning to hold three trials against three key members of the governments of the former leader of the PP. Two former vice presidents (Rodrigo Rato and Francisco Álvarez-Cascos) and a former spokesperson for the Executive (Eduardo Zaplana) are facing trial.

They face accusations of corruption from the Prosecutor's Office: fortunes hidden from the Treasury, accounts in Switzerland, diverted funds. The coincidence of these oral hearings questions a political era that the PP tried to elevate, and a generation that reached its heights of maximum power at the hands of Aznar.
