The far-right Vox party has broken its coalition with the People's Party (PP) in five Spanish regions, citing disagreements over immigration policies.

Vox leader Santiago Abascal demanded a deportation plan for illegal immigrants, including minors, as a condition for future support.

PP leader Alberto Núñez Feijóo, now facing governance challenges, sees this as an opportunity to distance his party from the far-right and potentially appeal to centrist voters.

The rupture comes amid broader European shifts away from far-right alliances.

PP officials are now conducting polls to gauge public reaction and considering their next steps, including the possibility of early elections in affected regions.
