Ukraine's Zelensky Cancels Visits to Spain and Portugal Due to Serious Internal Situation
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has decided to cancel his scheduled visits to Portugal and Spain
Two newly-established parties are set to shake the status quo in Spanish politics as citizens are casting ballots in a general election on Sunday.
Most polls show ruling Popular Party (PP) of Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy has a narrow lead.
But Rajoy and the biggest opposition party, socialist PSOE, are expected to lost many votes to leftist Podemos ("We Can") and centrist Ciudadanos ("Citizens"), two parties which rose to popularity during the crisis years.
Despite Spain's struggle to emerge out of the recession, a vast part of Spain's 36 million eligible voters are expected to back one of the two parties, calling into question the mainly bipartisan model that has been in place since the years of dictator Francisco Franco.
Opinion polls suggest a coalition government will be inevitable. Some parties, like Ciudadanos, however, have ruled out sharing power.
Voting day ends at 20:00 local time (21:00 EET).
Hours into the vote, no incidents have been reported as of 14:00 local time.
