Pedro Sánchez reelected Spain’s Prime Minister
The re-election of Pedro Sánchez as Prime Minister of Spain unfolded in the nation’s parliament, where he secured the critical support necessary to stay in power. With 179 lawmakers in favor out of the 350-seat lower house of parliament, Sánchez successfully formed a new minority leftist coalition government, with only right-wing opposition deputies voting against him.
This significant political development came after almost two days of intense debate among party leaders, the focal point of which was a controversial amnesty deal for Catalonia’s separatists. Sánchez entered into this agreement in exchange for crucial support, which ultimately enabled him to secure another four-year term as Prime Minister of Spain.
