Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez calls early general election for November 29

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez announced that an early general election will be held on November 29. The decision follows a legislative defeat last week regarding emergency measures to address housing affordability, alongside widespread protests across the country. It is not yet reported whether any coalition agreements will be formed ahead of the vote.
