The government has again shown its intention to monopolize the Bank of Spain with its latest move, the appointment of Soledad Núñez and Lucía Rodríguez.
It is staking an almost complete control of the bank, reducing the leading opposition party's involvement to the lowest in thirty years.
It has shown no willingness to seek consensus with the PP, this is evidenced by the previous rejection of Núñez and the decision to pact with the ERC a new advisor.
Conclusion: These moves demonstrate a partisan appropriation of a key institution, rather than genuine democratic regeneration. This reflects a broader governmental strategy aimed at maintaining Pedro Sánchez in power.
