If he maintains what he has said over time about a great alliance, I am convinced that he will push for a single proposal. The leader of United Left, Antonio Maíllo, has said in another interview that he is not "surprised" that Rufián heads the ERC candidacy for Congress and, when asked whether his movement breaks or facilitates a pact with the Broad Front, he responded that "none" of those options. #IzquierdaUnida #FrenteAmplio #Elections2026 (translated)

It is better to agree than to compete. Be that as it may, if Gerardo Pisarello, from the Comuns (which forms part of the Frente Amplio along with IU, Movimiento Sumar, and Más Madrid), argued a few days ago that "nothing should be ruled out" when asked about the primaries proposed by Podemos, the spokesperson for the group in Congress, Verónica Martínez Barbero, asserted that "it is better to agree than to compete" between parties, thus burying the proposal from the purple party. #FrenteAmplio #Podemos #Elecciones2026 (translated)

The government acknowledges in a report sent to Congress that its decree on rental housing could have negative effects on the supply of rental housing, although it asserts that these are not noticeable, specifying that it could have been more interventionist. #Vivienda #Alquiler #Gobierno (translated)

Fede Sturzenegger stated that a tweet from Flor Carignano about DNU 70/23 showed, in his opinion, that Kirchnerism was against the benefits that the norm had granted to Argentines. He described it as a force protecting the "elite" and claimed that its proposals would lead to stagnation and poverty. In defending the decree, Sturzenegger said that after the repeal of the Rental Law, four times more apartments were being published and that prices had dropped by more than 30% in real terms. He also stated that, since the DNU, the prices of medications had fallen by 20% in real terms; domestic tickets by 51%; and tourist packages by 40%. He added that in 2025 there were 33 million passengers and that international connections from cities in the interior increased by 70%. Regarding foreign trade, he attributed part of the 63% drop in appliance prices and the 43% drop in textiles to the changes in the decree. He also said that more than 750,000 satellite internet connections allowed access for almost 3 million people in the interior, and that tourism reforms had increased the number of agencies by almost 40% and employment in the sector by more than 10%. Sturzenegger pointed out that some labor and land provisions had been taken to Congress, while others had been challenged in court. He stated that the DNU had removed trade restrictions, reduced paperwork, and allowed contracts in the chosen currency, among other changes. He concluded that the debate about the decree should be kept in mind in the elections of the following year. #DNU70 #Kirchnerismo #Argentina (translated)

Oskar Matute bid farewell to Mertxe Aizpurua and said that they had shared many years and hours in Madrid, as well as laughter even in difficult moments. He claimed to feel fortunate for having witnessed her commitment and firmness up close, and for the political battles they had shared. He also highlighted the bond that, over time, turned Aizpurua into a friend and noted that he would miss having her sitting next to him. Matute added that the project that united them went beyond a stage in Congress. #Amistad #Despedida #Recuerdos (translated)

The author stated that Aizpurua had been convicted for glorifying terrorism and had edited a newspaper noted for marking targets for ETA. He also argued that she published covers intended, according to him, to humiliate the victims and that she supported Sánchez in exchange for the massive release of ETA members. He added that her departure would dignify the Congress. https://t.co/kehUPdUOzJ #Terrorismo #ETA #Política #ES (translated)
