Ayuso's Ultimatum: Spanish Only at Conference of Presidents or She's Out

Madrid's Ayuso vows to leave Conference of Presidents if Spanish isn't used. The Conference of Presidents is set to take place in Barcelona this Friday. Isabel Díaz Ayuso, president of the Community of Madrid, has confirmed her attendance but issued a strong statement regarding language. "If they have to tell me anything in the hallways, it will be in Spanish, or I will leave," Ayuso declared. This statement underscores the ongoing debate around language use in Spain and the political sensitivities involved. Ayuso's decision to attend, while setting this condition, highlights the complex balance between political participation and linguistic preferences.
