The PSOE has redefined its electoral strategy, turning the cabinet into its main pool of regional candidates. From Pilar Alegría, former Minister of Education and former spokesperson for the Spanish government, in Aragon, to María Jesús Montero, Vice President of the government, in Andalusia, and including Diana Morant, Minister of Science, Innovation and Universities, in the Valencian Community, and Óscar López, Minister for Digital Transformation and the "ministerial function," this is the recipe for trying to shake up the political landscape.

The major reshuffle of the Spanish executive has been made official. Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez's new ministers took office this morning. There are seven new faces - "rejuvenated", in Sánchez's words- that will be part of this new stage which aims to boost "economic, social and territorial recovery" after one of the worst crises of recent decades, as Pedro Sánchez has defended during the presentation of the PERTE to develop the electric vehicle on Monday. But behind the renewal there are also some internal government crises of recent months, some wounds that have become evident in the various speeches this Monday and that have gone from a parting shot at hitherto chief adviser Ivan Redondo, to the explicit recognition of a diplomatic crisis with Morocco, the Catalan issue and even a sad Miquel Iceta leaving the Ministry of Territorial Policy not even six months after he took over.
