Spain finds itself in another political crisis as Parliament is set to vote on a no-confidence motion that would oust Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy. The votes appear to be stacking up against him. But, as CGTN's Al Goodman reports, nothing in Spanish politics is certain until it happens.
MARIANO RAJOY SPANISH PRIME MINISTER "The sentence is an excuse used to hide the true reason of the no-confidence motion, which is Mr. Sanchez's urgency, and his low confidence on reaching the government's presidency, as the rest of us did-winning the elections."
AL GOODMAN MADRID "There seems to be broad agreement from this various parliament to oust Rajoy to end his political career. But the problem for the parties is who would be next. Because it at least three leaders, not just the socialists, but leaders from two other parties, want that prime minister's job. So all of Spain, and much of Europe is watching for the developments on Friday when this vote happens. Al Goodman, CGTN, Madrid."
