00:00I agree with a lot of the points that you made about artificial intelligence and about how money is a
00:04corruptive influence in politics often and in that context I'm very curious to ask you about the fact that your
00:11wife, your brother, your former attorney general, your former chief of staff, your wife's personal assistant are among nine different
00:19corruption investigations currently ongoing into your government.
00:24Some people are in jail in connection to this, some people are on trial, some people are under indictment and
00:30so I'm curious when we have this conversation about how to restore faith in government and how to shed the
00:35perception the government is influenced by dark money, how you see yourself and your government at a time when according
00:42to European Commission opinion polls, many Spaniards think that you're one of the reasons behind corruption within Spain.
00:49Thank you.
00:49Thank you for this question. I would say that of course we suffer some cases of corruption and I think
01:03that when it happens, no matter the countries, I think that what you must ask your government is to respond
01:12effectively and this is what I did.
01:14So, with the cases of corruption, with the cases of corruption, there are truth and unfortunately my government and my
01:21party suffered but this is one side and there's another one which brings me to my family, my wife and
01:30my daughter and my brother and sorry to say those are not corruption cases or scandals.
01:41Those are all the things. Those are all the things. And to me, well I think that the opposition and
01:48some far-right associations have crossed some red lines that bring me to a reflection that I would like to
01:58share with you as a politician.
02:03Being prime minister or politician. Being prime minister or politician is rewarding because you can do a lot of things
02:09for your country. And I'm proud to say that I did a lot of things for my country. And there's
02:15the outcome and the evidence and the facts.
02:19But to suffer this personal attack is very difficult to assume. And it's much more difficult because a young student
02:38like you, you already condemn them and you say that my brother and my wife are guilty and this is
02:47not fair.
02:48Because they are not. Because they are not. It's another issue which brings me to nasty politics but not corruption.
