Pedro Sánchez, Spain’s New Leader, Returns From the Political Wilderness-7
Rejected in Madrid, Mr.
Sánchez set off on a road
trip, driving around
Spanish towns in a bid to
rebuild support among the
party's grass-roots supporters. To the dismay
of the Socialist politicians
who had orchestrated his
ouster, Mr. Sánchez
returned after only seven
months to win re-election to the party's leadership,
defeating their favorite,
Susana Díaz, the regional
president of Andalusia, the
country's largest region
and a Socialist stronghold. Over the past week, Mr.
Sánchez has come across
as a leader who has
matured after returning
from the political
wilderness. He debated forcefully in Parliament
while striking complicated
alliances with other
parties, outflanking
Ciudadanos, the party that
wanted a snap election.Source:New York Time7
