Spanish PM Pedro Sanchez calls early election for July 23
Al JazeeraAPR 2023
The implementation of social democratic policies is the only feasible route to managing and sustaining the Spanish economy during the current crisis. Through this snap election, the PSOE will return to power with its electoral focus on public healthcare, education, and housing.
Sunday's election was a referendum on Sanchez's disastrous economic policies. Disgruntled Spaniards are angry and paranoid amid a ferocious rise in the cost of living, and have clearly had enough of the current left-wing government. This snap election risks backfiring and seeing power transferred to the People's Party.
