Pedro Sánchez Responds to Vox Regarding Electricity
Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez stated on Tuesday that the widespread power outage on the Iberian Peninsula on Monday was not related to a nuclear energy shortage in Spain, refuting claims made by the far-right Vox party.
In a press conference, Sánchez emphasized that “nuclear power production would not be more resilient” than other electricity sources in the face of the massive outage that occurred on Monday. He further asserted that “those linking this incident to a nuclear energy shortage are either lying publicly or expressing ignorance.”
