Reacciones a los decretos de vivienda y las acampadas en directo | Máxima expectación ante la declaración institucional anunciada por Sánchez a las 9.00 en Moncloa
El presidente ha cancelado el resto de su agenda del día
Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez announced a planned institutionally-declared statement at 9:00 AM in Moncloa, canceling the remainder of his day's schedule. The announcement has sparked maximum anticipation within the government and Spanish politics as a whole. Preparations are in place for Sánchez to clarify his plans regarding the early election, which the majority of the government and PSOE believe will happen after the defeat of the two housing decrees.
This declaration comes after Sánchez held multiple contacts over the weekend with executive members and Socialist leaders to decide the course for the legislature. The catalyst was the past Friday's defeat in Congress of the two decrees created by the government as a response to the social movement following the eviction of an 87-year-old woman, Maricarmen Abascal, in Madrid.
The decree was overturned when Junts Catalans voted alongside the PP and Vox, despite the government having negotiated parts of the decree with the Catalan separatists. Within the Socialist ranks, there is a majority opinion that Sánchez should dissolve the Cortes and call for elections as soon as possible. If he were to do so this Monday, the decree could be published in the BOE the following day, starting the 54-day countdown to the election on November 29th.
