## Key points

- Feijóo wants the PP to govern alone.
- He accepts a coalition may be needed after the election.
- He says any agreement with Vox must have clear red lines.

## Summary

Spain’s conservative People’s Party leader Alberto Núñez Feijóo is ahead in polls before the 29 November election, but may need support from the far-right Vox party to govern. He says his preference is a PP government with a comfortable majority of its own, while accepting that election results could require a coalition and insisting negotiations would need clear rules and red lines.

Feijóo points to existing PP-Vox regional governments in Extremadura, Aragón, Castilla y León and Andalusia as precedent. He rejects relying on the Socialist PSOE’s abstention to avoid Vox, calling that idea naïve under Pedro Sánchez’s leadership. The campaign debate centres on whether a national agreement with Vox would be formed and how power would be shared.
