In a surprising move, far-right party Vox has announced its decision to break coalition agreements with the People's Party (PP) in five Spanish autonomous communities.
The rupture comes after disagreements over the distribution of unaccompanied migrant minors from the Canary Islands.
Vox leader Santiago Abascal admitted to internal disagreements but insisted the decision was made collectively.
The PP views this as an opportunity to distance itself from the far-right, potentially improving its image.
However, some Vox regional leaders are resisting the party's orders, with a few deciding to remain in their government positions.
This political earthquake has left the PP optimistic about its future prospects, while Vox faces the risk of internal fragmentation and potential defections to the PP.
