Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez has just weeks to win over a group of Catalan lawmakers if he wants to avoid facing a government crisis following a defeat in parliament.
The government’s options are to either convince seven Catalan deputies to back an amnesty law they rejected Tuesday, or cave in to their demands to rewrite the bill. If he can’t get that done within the short timetable, the draft will be scrapped and the Socialist leader will have lost the support of a key ally, severely curtailing his ability to pass legislation.
