Basque nationalists are poised to cause the failure of the second housing decree in Spain after refusing to approve it, jeopardizing the implementation of permanent rental contracts. Despite this opposition, the remaining partners within Prime Minister Sánchez’s coalition are expected to vote in favor of the first housing decree tonight. The vote comes as Junts, another key political group, will decide this evening whether to support the initial decree concerning housing. Without the support of the Basque nationalists, the intended provisions for long-term rental agreements will not move forward. This situation highlights the complex political landscape and fragile alliances currently defining housing policy in Spain. The outcome of Junts’ decision will be decisive for the decree’s passage and the future of rental regulations. The failure to secure support from crucial allies is creating uncertainty around the government’s housing agenda.
