Spain's Congress rejected a decree-law extending the rent freeze on Tuesday, with 177 votes against from PP, Vox, Junts, and UPN, against 166 in favor and 5 PNV abstentions. The measure would have affected around three million tenants, according to the government. Minister Pablo Bustinduy defended it and urged the PSOE to reintroduce it.
Despite rent caps, advertised rents in 14 German cities have risen an average of 43 percent over the past ten years. Berlin saw the highest increase at 69 percent. This comes from the federal government's response to a query by Left Party MP Caren Lay.
