Large companies in Spain are urging Parliament to put an end to insults directed at individuals, following remarks by Podemos leader Ione Belarra towards Mercadona's president Juan Roig.
In Spain, major businesses have expressed their strong disapproval of comments made by Ione Belarra, the leader of the left-wing Podemos party, directed at Juan Roig, the president of Mercadona. The Institute of Family Business (IEF), which represents prominent companies such as Gestamp, Puig, and Ferrovial, has issued a statement condemning her remarks as utterly unacceptable. They highlighted that Roig's achievements and contributions to society are undeniable, rendering any insults against him baseless.
