She suggests that changes are needed, but acknowledges that workers nearing retirement age should maintain their pensions. The government has responded, with Minister Elma Saiz refuting Muñoz's claims and highlighting that there are 2.51 contributors for every pensioner. Meanwhile, party leader Alberto Núñez Feijóo has promised to ensure pensions keep pace with inflation and provide a \"public and viable\" system for young people.",
