Feijóo offers PNV and Junts a Vox-free government to call elections

Àwòrán tí AI ṣe

Alberto Núñez Feijóo proposed on Monday an instrumental motion of censure to form a PP-only government without Vox that would immediately call early elections.

The PP leader said 184 deputies are calling for immediate elections and challenged Junts and PNV to back the move to clean institutions and trigger the vote. "To call elections we do not need Vox to be in any government," he stated in interviews on Telecinco and other outlets.

Feijóo made clear he will not table the motion without guaranteed support so as not to shift attention from corruption cases surrounding the PSOE. The PP has ruled out any Vox role in that interim government.

PNV and Junts have called for elections but have so far rejected backing a motion of censure. Feijóo also appealed to critics inside the PSOE to act against Pedro Sánchez.

Initial reactions on X express skepticism about Feijóo's proposal to secure PNV and Junts support for a Vox-free government aimed at calling elections. Users question the feasibility, noting nationalist parties' reluctance and potential inconsistencies if Vox were later included. Some posts remain neutral by quoting headlines, while others criticize the strategy as opportunistic or unrealistic.

The PNV, a key government ally, demanded in Congress on Wednesday that Pedro Sánchez present the budgets and, if he fails to secure approval, dissolve parliament and call elections.

Acting Andalusian president Juanma Moreno began his third investiture speech on Monday acknowledging he needs Vox support. During the address he defended moderation and dialogue as hallmarks of his project.

Former prime minister Felipe González on Tuesday called on Pedro Sánchez to resign or call elections, one day before his appearance in Congress.

The Popular Party lost its absolute majority in the May 17 Andalusian regional elections after gaining more votes than ever but losing five seats due to the rise of Adelante Andalucía. The PSOE suffered its worst historical result with 28 seats. Vox gains influence and will condition Juan Manuel Moreno's next government.

Spain's Congress rejected the government's proposed budget stability path on Tuesday with 178 votes against and five abstentions. PP, Vox, Junts and UPN voted against, while Podemos abstained. The executive plans to resubmit the same proposal next week.
