Briefings
Spanish opposition leader Alberto Núñez Feijóo congratulated the upcoming November 29 legislative elections, accusing Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez of representing corruption and decadence. Sánchez announced the election date, which marks the end of the current 2027-2028 legislative term. Feijóo criticized the government's eight-year tenure, citing housing shortages, high costs, and territorial integrity issues, while noting the government lacked a parliamentary majority and relied on a coalition of eight parties to survive. The opposition party PP has consistently demanded a change in leadership, contrasting the current administration's survivalist approach with a vision for Spain's future.
