Spain will go to the polls on April 28, Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez announced on Friday.

“Spain must keep going forward,” the Socialist leader said in a statement, defending the legacy of his eight-month-old administration, which will become the shortest in Spain’s modern democratic history. It will be the third time Spaniards have to choose a new national parliament since December 2015.
