In the wake of the devastating DANA storm, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez faces mounting pressure both from the opposition and within his own ranks.
As the government prepares to approve a new aid package worth 2.3 billion euros to support affected areas, Sánchez is under scrutiny for his handling of the crisis.
The aid aims to extend social protections and support the recovery of educational and productive sectors.
However, the opposition, led by the Popular Party's Alberto Núñez Feijóo, criticizes Sánchez for a perceived lack of national leadership and delayed response.
Feijóo argues that a more proactive approach was needed, suggesting that an emergency national declaration should have been made immediately.
Meanwhile, allegations of corruption involving Sánchez's government add to the tension, with calls for transparency and accountability.
Despite these challenges, Sánchez maintains that the government acted responsibly and efficiently, pointing to the swift mobilization of resources and preventive measures taken by various institutions.
