Spain
Discussion of Spain was dominated by criticism of its economic model and housing policy. Daniel Lacalle characterised Spain’s growth as a statistical or GDP-driven mirage, citing weak per-capita growth, high unemployment, and comparatively poor public finances 418, while other commentary linked housing pressures to political conflict, union mobilisation, and Pedro Sánchez’s political survival 6915. Spain also appeared in wider European financial-risk discussions, with analysts warning that widening spreads could revive sovereign-bank stress 12131417.
