Spain's Sanchez running out of road as corruption probes stack up 19h ago

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez faces mounting pressure as multiple corruption investigations target his party and family, a stark contrast to his 2018 rise to power on an anti-corruption platform. While lauded internationally for his stances on global issues, Sanchez trails in domestic polls and faces criticism even from allies due to these legal probes, which include allegations against key confidants and his wife, Begona Gomez. Sanchez maintains these cases are part of a campaign to unseat him, with his party cooperating with investigations. Despite the challenges, his government has ruled out early elections, and opposition parties face reluctance from smaller parties to support a no-confidence vote that could usher in a PP government potentially reliant on the far-right.
