Sassoli, Caballé, Vara... the Catholic events that Pedro Sánchez did attend despite now saying he does not attend "religious services"

Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez has insisted that he does not attend religious duties, but since coming to power in 2018, he has attended several funerals in Catholic churches and basilicas. Among them, the funeral of soprano Montserrat Caballé in 2018, that of European Parliament President David Sassoli in 2022, and that of former Extremadura President Guillermo Fernández Vara in 2025. Additionally, Sánchez was present at the mass celebrated by the Pope at the Sagrada Familia in 2026 and at the mass for the victims of the Germanwings accident in 2015, when he was the leader of the opposition.
