"The renewal of the regional deals between the People's party (PP) and Vox comes ahead of next year's general election and as Spain's socialist government seeks to extol the benefits of immigration by regularising the status of at least 500,000 undocumented migrants."
"Vox agreed to facilitate the return of Maria Guardiola as PP president of Extremadura in exchange for control of three regional ministries and the introduction of a range of measures that include favouring Spaniards over foreign-born people when it comes to benefits and subsidies."
"Under the agreement, there will now be priority assignment of public resources to those who maintain a real, lasting and verifiable link to the territory."
The People's Party (PP) in Spain is rekindling its alliances with the far-right Vox party, particularly on immigration issues. This shift comes less than two years after previous coalitions collapsed due to disagreements over immigration policies. The PP's renewed agreements with Vox include governing regions like Extremadura and Aragon, with Vox gaining control over regional ministries. The new pacts emphasize prioritizing Spaniards for benefits and resources, reflecting a significant change in the PP's stance towards Vox and immigration.
