MADRID - The leader of Spain’s center-right Ciudadanos party has requested a meeting with acting Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez to try to break a political deadlock and avoid a repeat election.
Spain has been in political limbo since an inconclusive election in April in which the Socialist Party won most seats but failed to secure a majority. These were a pledge not to increase taxes, the chance to apply direct rule again in Catalonia if the regional government rejects an upcoming verdict in a trial of separatist leaders, and rejection of a pact with Basque nationalists in Navarra.
Aware of voters’ weariness with repeated elections, Spanish political leaders have spent much of their energy over the past months trying to deflect any blame for a possible new poll and it was unclear if this week’s unexpected developments could be a game-changer or were part of pre-campaign moves.
