Teresa Ribera Faces Political Battle for European Commissioner Role Amidst Controversy in Spain
The election of Teresa Ribera as the new Vice President and Commissioner for Competition of the European Commission has sparked a personal conflict between Pedro Sánchez and Alberto Núñez Feijóo in Spain. The Popular Party has intensified efforts to undermine her election, citing her alleged mishandling of the Valencia tragedy. Sánchez is fighting for Ribera’s appointment, supporting her candidacy at a G20 summit, while Feijóo aims to prevent her from being elected, claiming she abandoned her responsibilities. The outcome is significant for both political figures and the government.
