The President of the Government of Spain receives the Spanish team for the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Paralympic Games

In addition to recognising the performance of each of the participating athletes, as well as the role of their coaches and families, Pedro Sánchez made a "special mention" of Audrey Pascual for the "number of medals" she won: one bronze, one silver, and two gold. "It is a true honour to recognise in you that sporting role model that, I believe, many young, and not so young, people see in all of you," he added.

The head of the Executive, who was accompanied by the Minister for Education, Vocational Training and Sports, Milagros Tolón, and the President of the Higher Council for Sports, José Manuel Uribes, also wanted to underscore the continued "very firm and unwavering commitment on the part of all administrations" to "make visible and encourage the participation of athletes in the Paralympic Games", as already established by the Sports Law approved in 2022.
