Spain Swears In Pedro Sánchez as Prime Minister, Capping Week of Upheaval

Written by Fairchick Date
Pedro Sánchez was sworn
in on Saturday as Spain's
new prime minister,
capping a remarkable
personal comeback and a
week of political upheaval that culminated in the first removal of an incumbent
leader by Parliament in modern Spanish history. Little more than a year
ago, Mr. Sánchez, 46,
seemed lost in the political
wilderness, deposed as the
leader of the Socialist
party after two record electoral defeats. And the
man he has now replaced,
Mariano Rajoy, 63, was
seen as the great survivor of Spanish politics, one of Europe's longest-serving
heads of government. But Mr. Sánchez was unexpectedly re-elected as
Socialist leader seven months after his ousting.
Then, when Mr. Rajoy's
conservative Popular Party
was tarnished by
corruption — a court last
week found the party guilty of operating a slush fund —
he pounced, assembling
parliamentary backing for a
vote of no confidence in
Mr. Rajoy, which passed
on Friday.Source:New York Times
