Ábalos
José Luis Ábalos is a Spanish politician and member of the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE), who served as the Minister of Transport, Mobility and Urban Agenda from January 2020 until July 2021. He has been embroiled in controversy regarding allegations of corruption linked to public contracts during his tenure, facing accusations from businessman Víctor de Aldama, who claims improper dealings took place while Ábalos was in office. However, investigations into these claims have revealed a lack of credible evidence to support Aldama's assertions.
