José Luis Ábalos Meco
José Luis Ábalos Meco is a Spanish politician who served as the Minister of Transport from June 2018 until July 2021. A prominent member of the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE), he was a key supporter of Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez and played a significant role in the motion of no confidence that ousted former Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy. His tenure, however, came under scrutiny amid allegations of corruption associated with public funds, particularly related to the Air Europa rescue, raising serious questions about his conduct and the integrity of his office.
