The leader of Spain's Popular Party (PP), Alberto Núñez Feijóo, is navigating internal tensions after endorsing a controversial alliance between the Valencian government, led by Carlos Mazón, and the far-right Vox party.

The agreement, aimed at passing the 2025 regional budget, has sparked criticism within the PP for adopting Vox's hardline stances on immigration and the European Green Deal.

While Feijóo imposed certain limits on the deal, critics argue it risks alienating moderate voters and reigniting debates over the PP's ties to the far-right.

Despite internal pressure to replace Mazón, Feijóo has opted to maintain his position, citing the lack of a viable alternative.

The alliance is seen as a test case for similar agreements in other regions, but it has also highlighted divisions within the party over its future direction.
