The package of measures to deal with the economic and social consequences of the war in Ukraine, which the Council of Ministers will approve this Tuesday and which will enter into force on 1 January, aims to 200 euro check for incomes of less than 27,000 euros per year and with assets of no more than 75,000 euros.
Podemos Secretary of State for Economic Affairs and Secretary of State for Social Rights, Nacho Álvarez, stated in an interview on RNE’s “Las mañanas” that it would reach “nearly 5 million families” and that it would be applied “immediately”. .
The government of Spain has also agreed freeze rents when contracts need to be renewed for six months. Sources familiar with the negotiations have indicated that this measure will last six months from the end of the contract. In addition, the limit will be extended to 2% for updating rents.
The rent freeze was one of United We Can’s fundamental demands in the negotiations on this third package of measures and was the main stumbling block in moving forward with the new decree.
Moreover, it is agreed reduction of public transport, through which the Government of Spain will provide direct support to the autonomous communities and local entities to reduce the urban and interurban subscription by at least 50%. Cercanías and rodalíes will be free in 2023, as will public transport by road.
Withdraw the widespread fuel subsidy
One of the most questioned measures is the extension of the bonus of 20 cents per liter of fuel. Unidas Podemos spokesman in Congress, Pablo Echenique, stated in an interview this morning on TVE, collected by Europa Press, that the two formations of the coalition government agree that the general grant should be withdrawn, although for the professional sectors.
In fact, the government’s economic manager, Nadia Calviño, listed among the sectors potentially most affected are transportation, agriculture, livestock and fishing.
45 billion
Pedro Sánchez estimated the total cost of the measures in his crash plan to deal with the energy crisis and high inflation caused by the Russian invasion of Ukraine at 45 billion euros.
This is how Sánchez explained it at the press conference after the extraordinary Council of Ministers that on Tuesday gave the green light to the third package of measures, with a cost of more than 10,000 million euros, in addition to the 35,000 million of the two previous decrees.
