Recta final de un mandato perdido
Aug. 16, 2026

  • The XV legislature is facing legislative deadlock due to lack of clear parliamentary majority.
  • Pedro Sánchez's government has been unable to sustain a solid legislative agenda.
  • Sánchez's frequent recourse to decree surpasses that of his predecessors.
  • More than 170 rules remain in waiting, denoting a legislative stagnation.

Conclusion: The collapse of this legislature appears to be irreversible. Prolonging it will not only fail to resolve the issue, but will make it evident that the country needs to return power to the citizens as soon as possible.
