Overview
- A judge at the Audiencia Nacional kept former prime minister José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero formally under investigation for multiple alleged crimes and did not impose precautionary measures.
- Feijóo said he will no longer categorically rule out a coalition with Vox and spelled out red lines that include respect for the Constitution, the state of autonomies, gender equality and LGTBI rights.
- He reaffirmed support for the current time-limit abortion law validated by the Constitutional Court and promised to reform the euthanasia law to "perfect" it, citing the Noelia case.
- The opposition leader pledged a cabinet no larger than 15 ministers, fewer advisers than the current government and said he will push for a motion of censure to try to form a new government and call elections.
- Feijóo framed these moves as a pragmatic national strategy that builds on recent regional pacts with Vox and negotiated agreements with Junts on energy, taxes and measures for self-employed workers, a shift that could reshape legislation if he reaches power.
