Overview

• Spain’s Congress will debate next week a decree to halt arms sales to Israel and a sustainable mobility law tied to about €10 billion in EU funds, with PSOE and Sumar still short of assured votes.
• Podemos has blasted the arms embargo decree as insufficient and wants tighter controls, while Junts has not clarified its position, leaving the government exploring paths to secure a simple majority.
• The Spanish right intensified its public rift over immigration after the PP proposed a plan prioritizing applicants with “cultural proximity,” prompting Vox to accuse the PP of copying and misleading voters.
• Peru’s Congress voted 51–14 to approve a constitutional accusation against former prime minister Betssy Chávez for alleged incompatible negotiation and influence peddling, sending the dossier to the Attorney General’s Office.
• Peru’s justice minister, Juan José Santiváñez, resigned to pursue a 2026 candidacy days before a scheduled censure debate, while in Mexico the Morena–PT–PVEM bloc reaffirmed unity and urged turnout for President Sheinbaum’s first‑year address in the Zócalo.
