This episode reviews Spain’s 2025 economic performance as presented by Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, weighing official data against political claims. We examine strong GDP growth of 2.9%, well above the EU average, alongside persistent unemployment. The discussion covers gains in the minimum wage, increased education grants, and crackdowns on illegal tourist rentals—while highlighting housing affordability as the country’s most pressing unresolved issue and the effort to balance defense spending with social welfare.
