Monday, December 14, 2015 @ 6:21 PM
LEADERS of Spain's main rival parties, the PP and PSOE will debate face to face today (Monday) over the four most vital issues for the country.
Starting with the most thorny subject for Spain, employment and the economy, existing president Mariano Rajoy (PP) and his direct opposite Pedro Sánchez (PSOE) will finish with issues relating to a 'globalised Spain', such as terrorism, defence policy and immigration.
The content of the two-way debate has been agreed by both parties, the right-wing PP and the left-wing socialists or PSOE, and the discussion will be opened by Sánchez and closed by Rajoy.
As well as economy and employment and the concluding 'Globalised Spain' rounds, the two direct rivals will discuss the welfare State, and institutional reforms.
The debate will be 'less corseted' and 'more open', 'less rigid' and 'more fluid' than previous televised discussions in the run-up to the general elections, says the PP.
