Sánchez esgrime la victoria ultra en Alemania para reanimar al PSOE tras el desgaste por Ceuta

El presidente afirma que la ciudad “recuperará pronto la normalidad” y asegura que el resultado de AfD en Sajonia es “la constatación” de que la reedición del Gobierno de coalición “es hoy más necesaria que nunca”

Original Spanish Read in English

Pedro Sánchez triumphantly recovered the ultra-right victory in Germany's Sajonia-Anhalt elections and the progressive coalition government's position in one of the major Western countries to revive the PSOE members at the beginning of a session affected by the crisis in Ceuta. So confident, the president assured without specifying any date that the city "will soon recover normalcy" and "emerge strengthened thanks to the government's action" during an intervention where he did not criticize his administration's handling of a crisis that had entered its sixth week without a clear resolution.

According to a 40dB poll for EL PAÍS and Cadena SER, 63% of Spaniards believe Sánchez is managing the situation "very poorly" (49.9%) or "poorly" (12.8%). The president linked part of the erosion to the global far-right's interest: "The entire ultra-right, European and non-Atlantic, is attacking Spain. Well, for something it is."
