In view of the speech he gave yesterday at the Cercle d’Economia, it would seem that Salvador Illa simply wanted to paint a radiant picture of current economic growth and a bright future but without talking about the problems. New budgets and future model of…
The first witnesses deflated the accusations against David Sánchez yesterday. “I don’t remember,” “I have no evidence,” or “there were no irregularities” were the main statements during the long court session. The brother of the Prime Minister sits in the dock at the Badajoz Court accused of separate crimes of malfeasance and influence peddling for allegedly having been given a job at the Badajoz Provincial Council in 2017.
Alberto Núñez Feijóo is in Barcelona this Tuesday, where he will speak to Catalan entrepreneurs at the Cercle d’Economia sessions at a time of maximum political pressure for Junts to support an instrumental motion of no confidence to accelerate the calling of elections. According to sources from Feijóo’s team, the PP leader will deliver a “brave” speech during the dialogue he will have with economist Teresa García-Milà. The meeting in Barcelona takes place 24 hours after Feijóo himself expressed being “optimistic” about the possibility of a change of Government through the vote of no confidence because “184 deputies” in Congress “are demanding early and immediate elections.” “If those who say it are consistent and do it, we can find a solution in a short time,” he added yesterday.
In the midst of confusion this Monday over Iran’s announcement to leave negotiations with the United States due to Israel’s attacks in Lebanon, U.S. President Donald Trump later claimed to have had “a productive conversation” with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that had helped to unblock the situation. “Negotiations continue at a rapid pace,” he proclaimed.
Israel has not ceased its offensive against Hizbullah in Lebanon, despite the peace negotiations underway between Iran and the United States to end the war in the region. Benjamin Netanyahu has ignored Donald Trump’s recommendations and has continued his offensive, which is…
Donald Trump sought to exit the war with Iran with a pact before the midterm elections, but his unruly ally, Israel, threatens to blow the agreement apart. Benjamin Netanyahu announced early Sunday a new wave of bombings in the southern neighborhoods of Beirut, one of the red lines that the United States had set in the ceasefire signed between the Lebanese and Israeli governments last April 17.
Europe confirms its new tough migration policy. While the European Parliament and the European Council have just given their green light to the final EU return regulation that endorses the creation of migrant deportation centers in third countries, some European countries do not want to waste any more time on bureaucratic processes and have gotten to work. Following the lessons of the Italian Giorgia Meloni in Albania, several capitals are grouping into small teams within the Twenty-Seven to probe other countries in Africa, the Balkans, or Central Asia where similar agreements to the one between Rome and Tirana can be created.

If British politics were a horror movie (and the truth is it often seems like one, even Oscar-worthy), its title would be The Zombie and the Ghost. Because to the famous zombies of Night of the Living Dead, we must add Keir Starmer as the resident of Downing Street (awaiting to be guillotined), and to the famous ghosts like the Phantom of the Opera, Anne Boleyn roaming the Tower of London, the Flying Dutchman, or Abraham Lincoln in the White House, we must now add Peter Mandelson.
President Donald Trump added another medal on Monday by announcing that negotiations between the United States and Iran had resumed, after Tehran announced that they were walking away from the table due to Israel’s attacks in Lebanon. However, in an initial reaction to the Islamic republic, Trump downplayed his claim, saying he had not been informed about it beforehand. “I think it’s fine if they have finished talking,” he replied with apparent indifference.
