Overview
- Carlos Mazón resigned as Valencian president, with Santiago Abascal saying Mazón phoned him minutes before the announcement.
- Abascal cast Pedro Sánchez and national ministers as chiefly responsible for last year's DANA and called the PP’s move a “scapegoat” that gives Sánchez “oxygen.”
- He faulted the PP for the timing on the day the state prosecutor’s trial began at the Supreme Court and said he has had no contacts with Alberto Núñez Feijóo.
- Vox opened its Extremadura precampaign with events in Plasencia and a full house in Cáceres that drew protests and a strong police presence.
- Abascal said Vox will choose its Extremadura candidate next week and reiterated that any backing in Valencia or regional deals will hinge on programmatic terms.
