Overview
- Vox leader Santiago Abascal said the Partido Popular has a duty to present a no-confidence motion to expose the Sánchez government, speaking in a Telecinco interview.
- Abascal acknowledged the motion cannot succeed without Junts and confirmed he did not discuss it with PP chief Alberto Núñez Feijóo during their recent call.
- PP secretary general Miguel Tellado ruled out filing a motion he considers doomed, arguing a failed attempt would hand the government a political lifeline.
- Talks over replacing Carlos Mazón in Valencia continue, with Abascal insisting Vox prefers to negotiate directly with proposed candidate Juanfran Pérez Llorca and criticizing the PP’s uneven messaging across regions.
- Abascal said Vox will not abstain to let Feijóo govern alone, and he and Tellado split on the Attorney General’s trial, with Abascal asserting evidence to convict and Tellado deferring to the Supreme Court while saying the prosecutor should have resigned.
