The five most important news today


Summary of the most important news for this Monday, January 10. We emphasize that Minister Alberto Garzón's statements about the livestock sector are already taking their toll on the left. The PP candidate, Alfonso Fernández Mañueco, will be able to govern Castilla y León alone after the early elections on February 13. This is reflected in a survey by Hamalgama Métrica for Vozpópuli, which grants 37 deputies and a comfortable victory to the current Castilian and Leonese president. Mañueco is only four seats away from the absolute majority after absorbing the Ciudadanos vote. And Vox's abstention would be worth it for the investiture.

Another important issue is that the recovery of the Spanish economy is a reality, but it has not yet reached the appropriate speed in the different parameters used to measure it. The volume of employment measured by the number of workers affiliated with Social Security has recovered the levels prior to the declaration of the state of alarm, but other parameters are still far from the records at the end of 2019.

On the other hand, Pedro Sánchez still does not have the necessary support guaranteed to carry out his labor reform but, for now, he has managed to provoke a new confrontation between the two main right-wing parties. PP and Vox are locked in a vote that has not yet taken place and they reproach each other for pacts with the PSOE and other parties on the left.

In addition, the Russian oligarch Sergei Pugachev has come face to face with the Madrid Justice in his attempt to demand 12,000 million euros from Russia. The Civil and Criminal Chamber of the Superior Court of Justice of Madrid (TSJM) has dismissed the request for annulment of the arbitration award that in June 2020 determined that Pugachev could not invoke his French nationality to claim the value of the assets that, he assures, they have been irregularly seized by Vladimir Putin's Russia, valued at 12,000 million.

Finally, an Australian court ordered this Monday the release of the number one tennis player, the Serbian Novak Djokovic, who had been detained since last Thursday in a detention center in the city of Melbourne after the revocation of his visa for not being vaccinated against the covid-19. However, mid-morning, it has been announced that the athlete's family has denounced that he has been arrested again.

Elections in Castilla y León

The PP candidate would obtain 37 seats and would be worth Vox's abstention to govern Castilla y León. Soria is already the only group in Spain emptied with a seat on 13-F, according to the Hamalgama Métrica survey for 'Vozpópuli'
