Fact check
“The government is expected to approve pro-tenant measures in its next cabinet meeting.”
Reasoning
Both excerpts from France 24 report that, following public protests over an eviction, the Spanish government is under pressure and is expected to approve a package of tenant‑protection measures in its upcoming cabinet meeting. The claim matches this reported expectation.
On confidence: The claim is directly echoed in two primary news excerpts, which state that the government is expected to approve pro-tenant measures at the next cabinet meeting. The sources are reputable (France 24) but report an expectation, not a confirmed decision.
Important context
The sources note that while the cabinet may approve the measures, parliamentary approval is uncertain because the government lacks a majority. Thus, the claim reflects a forecast, not a guaranteed outcome.
