Overview

  • Spain has been operating under 2023 budgets due to Pedro Sánchez's failure to present new fiscal plans amid parliamentary fragility.
  • Feijóo emphasized his track record of consistent budget proposals during his tenure as president of the Xunta de Galicia.
  • PP-led regions, including Aragón and Murcia, face challenges passing local budgets without Vox's support, though Valencia nears an agreement.
