  "account": "The Spanish government aims to mediate in the labor dispute at Airbus Spain, according to Industry State Secretary Jordi García Brustenga, who confirmed this on Tuesday. The executive remains closely monitoring the negotiations' progress and expects to intervene if the parties fail to reach an agreement. However, Brustenga trusts that the company and unions will arrive at a deal without intervention. If not, he stated that the government would need to mediate or at least warn that they cannot gamble with the next 30 years for a sector with significant growth potential. As for the timeline for possible mediation, Brustenga indicated that the minister will decide in the coming days, referring to Industry Minister Jordi Hereu. While acknowledging the need for such noises to reach a pact, he also urged for prompt resolution of the conflict. So far, the negotiation remains stalled as the company and unions closed their meeting with the Interconfederal Service of Mediation and Arbitration (SIMA) without an agreement. The majority unions (CCOO, ATP, and SIPA) claim that the company refused to negotiate with the committee unless the strike is suspended or called off. On Monday, Airbus centers in Getafe (Madrid), San Pablo, and Tablada (Seville) decided to maintain the strike, with 81.2% of the in-person votes at their assemblies, representing around 1,000 out of 15,000 employees in Spain. 16.4% voted against, and 2.4% abstained. Workers in Albacete and Córdoba followed the majority's decision, while the Illescas (Toledo) plant voted to pause the mobilization the previous Friday. Airbus expressed regret over the workers' decision to continue the indefinite strike, stating that it is evaluating its next steps. The company highlighted that the strike's continuation is causing a critical situation for its business, recently acknowledging clear messages of concern from various clients and stakeholders who need business continuity and reliability.",
