In Spain, Vox leader Santiago Abascal declared victory after his party succeeded in stripping the ruling PP (Partido Popular) of its absolute majority in Andalusian elections. “Lo logramos” (“We did it”), Abascal proclaimed, as Vox candidate Manuel Gavira celebrated what the far-right party sees as a pivotal result in one of Spain’s most important regions. The loss of PP’s majority could reshape the political landscape of southern Spain and force uncomfortable coalition negotiations.
Meanwhile, Peru is preparing for a high-stakes presidential runoff.
