Spanish media extensively covered Junts' unanimous decision to break with the PSOE. In the morning, reports indicated Junts was preparing to withdraw support, with Puigdemont advocating for the split. By early afternoon, the executive's unanimous approval of the break was confirmed, setting the stage for a membership vote. This decision was presented as a response to the PSOE's alleged failure to honor agreements, with Puigdemont declaring Junts would move into opposition and not support a government that did not assist Catalonia. Concurrently, María Guardiola called snap elections in Extremadura for December 21, a move widely interpreted as an attempt to counter Vox or the PSOE.
