Vox's Exit from Regional Governments Reshapes Spanish Politics

Published: 2024-07-14

In a surprising move, Spain's far-right party Vox has withdrawn from five regional governments, citing disagreements over immigration policies.

This decision marks a significant shift in Spanish politics, potentially benefiting the center-right Popular Party (PP) led by Alberto Núñez Feijóo.

The PP now has an opportunity to distance itself from the far-right and appeal to more centrist voters.

However, Feijóo faces challenges in navigating this new political landscape, as he must balance attracting moderate support while not alienating conservative voters.

The rupture also raises questions about the future of right-wing alliances in Spain and could impact national politics.
