Spain election: What impact do the results will have on Spain’s EU presidency?
Issued on: 24/07/2023 – 11:48Modified: 24/07/2023 – 17:17 03:45 © France 24 Spain was trapped in a political gridlock on Monday after right-wing parties failed to clinch a decisive victory and no clear winner emerged from a national election, leaving pro-independence Catalan and Basque parties as potential kingmakers. The results from Sunday’s vote left neither the left-wing nor right-wing blocs with an easy path to form a government. Spanish stocks fell and government bond prices dipped in early…

Spain election: Ruling leftists withstood the odds, far right lost 19 seats
Issued on: 24/07/2023 – 10:55Modified: 24/07/2023 – 11:09 01:52 © France24 The spectre of the far right entering the Spanish government all but disappeared after Sunday’s elections. The ultra nationalist vox party lost support in the vote, meaning there’s little chance it’ll be the kingmaker for a governing coalition. Though the mainstream conservative Popular Party came in first place, it performed well below predictions. It’s all relatively good news for Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, whose socialist party came in second place and looks set to gain two more seats than in the last election. Now begins the battle between the leftist and rightwing blocs as they look to form potental governing coalitions. FRANCE 24’s Carolyn Lamboley…

Spain general election: Could there be another vote?
Issued on: 24/07/2023 – 16:04Modified: 24/07/2023 – 16:12 03:07 © France 24 No party has been left with a clear path to forming a government in Spain after Sunday’s snap election. The centre right popular party fell short of estimates. Now even if it enters a coalition with the far right Vox party, they won’t have the 176 votes needed to secure a majority. Socialist prime minister Pedro Sanchez meanwhile is fighting to keep his job, and may need to make concessions to a separatist party in Catalonia along the way. FRANCE 24’s correspondent in…

Issued on: 24/07/2023 – 17:27Modified: 24/07/2023 – 17:32 04:51 © France 24 The far-right Vox party lost seats in Spain’s elections on Sunday, staving off the prospect of a first hardline nationalist-backed government since General Francisco Franco’s dictatorship and pointing to limitations in the European far-right’s bid for the mainstream. Polls had predicted a win for the centre-right People’s Party (PP) with Vox as the likely kingmaker but they failed to win a majority, leaving Catalan and Basque pro-independence…
