Spain’s Socialists reach gov’t coalition deal with hard-left Sumar party
Al JazeeraAUG 2023
Spain's left is taking the necessary steps to form a strong government and prevent the far-right from taking over the country. The Socialist Party was on its deathbed following July's election, but has seen a resurgence after the People's Party couldn't form a majority. With the help of the progressive Sumar party, Sanchez's Socialists can retake power and remake the state's democratic institutions.
Spain's acting government is trying to cling onto power by pledging to completely transform the country's laws and undermine Spanish sovereignty. The Socialists care about nothing except their own power and are willing to bend the knee to traitors and secessionists to get votes. Sanchez should think about more than himself when trying to form a government.
