The right-wing parties consider Puente's resignation insufficient, while the government's coalition partners "thank" him for the decision

The resignation of Spanish Minister Juan Carlos Monedero has triggered sharply divided reactions across the political spectrum. The People's Party (PP) criticized Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez for initially appointing the minister, while the far-right Vox party accused the President of hiding behind his subordinates. In contrast, coalition partners within the governing alliance expressed gratitude for the decision, with the Broad Front (Frente Amplio) praising the 'dignity' involved in making such a difficult gesture. The article highlights this partisan split, contrasting the opposition's focus on executive responsibility with the government allies' appreciation for the minister's departure.
