The declassification of documents regarding the 23-F coup attempt served as an excuse for PP leaders to rush to demand the return of the former king to Spain. "It would be a collective failure as a country if Juan Carlos I were to end his days in exile," said the Prime Minister, Marga Prohens, shortly after Feijóo made the same statement. The revealed secrets of the coup have yielded little more than a few minor details and have confirmed what we already knew. The PP's attempt to exploit the head of state's correct actions—his duty—45 years ago to glorify him is a demagogic attempt to ignore why he chose to go to Abu Dhabi. Voluntarily. He didn't do it solely to save the Crown or his son's reign, but for the security of living in a country where he wouldn't have to pay a single euro in taxes.

President Marga Prohens has joined the national leader of her party, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, in calling for the return of Juan Carlos I to Spain. In statements reported by Europa Press, she warned that it would be "a collective failure as a country" if the former king "were to spend his final years in exile." Following the declassification of documents related to the 23-F coup attempt, which identify the former king as a key figure in thwarting the coup, several members of the People's Party (PP) have acknowledged his role. "If there is a key figure in the Transition, apart from Adolfo Suárez, it is undoubtedly King Juan Carlos," the head of the regional government insisted.

Juan Carlos has published an indescribable video to promote his memoirs. He defends his role in the transition from dictatorship to democracy and ends by asking young people to support his son, Felipe VI, in his reign. He is seen seated against a backdrop of a Spanish flag—both digital and stylized—that covers the entire screen. We haven't seen a more ridiculous use of the flag since Sonia Monroy appeared at the Oscars ceremony wrapped in one as a dress. Nor have we seen a more ludicrous use of green screen. Nor of whatever video editing software they used.

King of Majorca is just one of the titles on an endless list held by Spanish sovereigns. But, most likely, it was the 'emeritus' Juan Carlos I who spent the most time in the Balearic Islands throughout history: more than the mythologized 'private' kings –James II, Sancho I, and James III– who were almost never there, preferring to remain at the court in Perpignan and in their mainland possessions. We recall this connection with the archipelago on the 50th anniversary of his proclamation as Franco's successor on November 22, 1975.

He Judge José Castro He became famous throughout Spain when he decided to seat a member of the Royal Family, Infanta Cristina, in the dock for the first time.
