Spain's far-right Vox party has rejoined the regional government of Extremadura through an alliance with the conservative Popular Party (PP), ahead of the 2027 general election. Vox had previously withdrawn from five regional governments due to disputes over migrant policies. Maria Guardiola of the PP was re-elected as head of the Extremadura government with Vox's backing. The coalition agreement includes measures to tighten immigration rules, prioritizing aid for those with a verified link to the territory. Socialist Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez criticized the agreement as discriminatory, highlighting its potential impact on public services and benefits. The PP and Vox are also negotiating in other regions, with the outcome likely influencing the national election.
