MOSCOW (Sputnik) — On Sunday, Spain held general elections that ended the two-party system in the country, with the Spanish Socialist Workers Party (PSOE) and the ruling People’s Party (PP) having shared power in parliament for 30 years.
Historic. Imagine a world where elections are more than a choice between one or the other. Congratulations, Spain! https://t.co/sLXWDk01ms
