Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez is expected to take power again, after his Socialist Party defeated the challenge of the right-wing nationalist party in Sunday's election. Sanchez said that this result will boost the morale of the EU.
This is one of the most competitive elections in Spain in decades. The Socialist Party has increased, and the far-right party Vox has risen. Its extreme nationalist campaign platform echoes the political trend in Europe, that is, the European traditional parties give way to anti-immigration and doubt. European party.
However, the rise of Vox also distracted the right-wing votes, further diversifying the political map of Spain and benefiting the Socialist Party. The party’s seat increased by nearly 50%.
“The Socialist Party won the election,” Sanchez said at the party headquarters in Madrid, laughing at the cheering supporters. Hundreds of people celebrated on the streets, waving red flags and shouting "Long live Spain" and "Long live socialism."
"Social democracy has a great future because it has great influence, and Spain is an example. We will set up a pro-European government with the aim of strengthening rather than weakening Europe," he added.
This result may make people who support the deepening of EU integration relieved. On May 26, the European Parliament elections will be ushered in. Many people originally worried that the Vox party might rise strongly in Spain.
