  • Spain requires a key fiscal reform that is still pending to resolve economic weaknesses such as inequality and a lack of state strength during crises.
  • The push for this reform comes from both Spain's internal needs and Brussels' requirements for Spain to continue receiving European funds.
  • The Spanish Government has argued that the existing tax measures are already addressing part of these needs, but Brussels insists on more thorough reforms.
  • There is political disagreement within Spain on how the fiscal reform should be carried out, particularly in relation to autonomous financing.

Conclusion: Challenging though essential, fiscal reform in Spain is a critical point for the country’s economic health. Balancing between internal and Brussels' demands would ensure its success.
