Publicly funded company presidents appointed by the PSOE have contacted the PP and claim they are professionals

The upcoming elections raise questions about the future of public company leaders appointed by the current government. Some executives have engaged with Alberto Núñez Feijóo's team, asserting their professionalism. Sources confirm these contacts, framing them as routine updates to the opposition about strategic companies. Current managers wish to continue their roles to complete strategic plans, claiming they have valid mandates. However, the PP emphasizes that appointments should be based on merit, not political ties. Notably, Beatriz Corredor's departure from Redeia is anticipated if the PP wins, despite her mandate lasting until 2028. Other executives face scrutiny, with potential changes expected in companies like Indra and Telefónica, depending on the election outcome. The article critiques the ongoing practice of political appointments in public companies, highlighting the need for professional qualifications over political affiliations.
