Spain Reels from Major Power Outage: Podemos Leader Demands Government Accountability Madrid, Spain – Two weeks after Spain experienced its worst power outage in history, the government remains silent on the cause, sparking outrage among citizens. Ione Belarra, Secretary General of the left-wing party Podemos, has accused the country's electric oligopoly of greed and negligence, demanding immediate action. "Two weeks after the worst blackout in our country's history, we still don't have a single explanation from the Government," Belarra stated in a recent press conference. "All this because of the greed of the electric oligopoly that lines its pockets at the expense of the people." Belarra's comments highlight the widespread frustration among Spaniards, who have been left without power and answers. The lack of transparency has fueled speculation about the role of the energy companies and the government's response. The video shows Belarra's call for the creation of a public energy company to address the issue, a proposal that has sparked a lively political debate.
