#SPAIN: Socialist Pty Fails Again To Form Gov't; New Elections Loom

[world politics news]


The leader of Spain's Socialists has again failed to win the confidence of parliament to become prime minister, opening a new round of talks between parties who now have just two months to break a 10-week deadlock and avoid a fresh election. Leader Pedro Sanchez lost his second vote, securing the support of only 131 members of the 350-strong assembly for his proposed coalition which sets the country on course for its second election in six months.
