Spanish government faces internal rift over Almaraz nuclear plant extension

Internal friction has emerged within the Spanish government following disagreements between the PSOE and its coalition partner, Sumar, regarding the extension of the Almaraz nuclear power plant's operational life. This dispute highlights deeper tensions concerning the nation's long-term energy policy.

The disagreement is part of a broader pattern of instability within the executive branch, characterized by visible disagreements between the Ministries of Defense and the Interior. Critics point to these internal divisions as a sign of a fractured administration struggling to maintain a unified stance on critical issues such as energy, migration, and state security.
