The New York Times: Οι Ισπανοί ψηφοφόροι θα προσέλθουν στις κάλπες τον Ιούλιο

Spanish voters will go to the polls in July
Spain’s prime minister, Pedro Sánchez, said that he would dissolve Parliament and called a snap election for July 23, after his liberal Socialist Workers’ Party suffered bruising defeats in regional and local elections over the weekend. “I take personal responsibility for the results,” he said.
The announcement ends the country’s first coalition government since the return of democracy in the 1970s — a fragile alliance formed in 2020 from a hodgepodge of leftist parties and deeply polarizing Catalan and Basque separatists.
In the weekend’s elections, the Socialist Workers’ Party was crushed by the conservative Popular Party. The far-right Vox party — still taboo to many moderates — also performed well and is now represented in all of the country’s regional parliaments.
Legacy: Sánchez has overseen an economic growth rate above the E.U. average and given Spaniards relatively low power prices despite Europe’s energy crisis. But conservatives found fertile ground in his dependence on his coalition’s separatists and far-left forces, and they characterized him as being “in the hands of radical people,” one analyst said.
