Spain's Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez's dogs stay at La Mareta ahead of his Lanzarote holiday

President Pedro Sánchez's two dogs, Turca and India, arrived at the official residence La Mareta in Costa Teguise, Lanzarote, several days before the prime minister’s summer break. Sánchez is scheduled to land on the island on Saturday and remain there until 24 August, after which he will return to the mainland on 12 August to watch a total solar eclipse that will be visible partially from the Canary Islands.

The visit comes amid a security deployment and routine criticism from opposition parties. In the days before the holiday, the government allocated €196.1 million to the Canary Islands for social programmes, employment measures and infrastructure projects. Additional pending actions include a €100 million contribution for the reconstruction of La Palma and a reduction of the regional income‑tax rate to 60 percent for island residents. Sánchez has chosen La Mareta for seven consecutive summers, making the residence a recurring focal point of his seasonal itinerary.
