And I think the government feels that that will be a way of making sure that this goes through at express speed.
It's still quite soon for that.
I think they're still waiting to find out when and how exactly this span would be implemented.
We have heard from Elon Musk.
And he's talked in very strong language about this ban on his own platform X. And he's described Pedro Sanchez as a tyrant and a traitor to Spain and called him a fascist and so on.
And that has been related to this package of measures.
a very strong backlash from Elon Musk.

It's come to trial because the public prosecutor decided there was a case here. There was an investigation carried out into this by the investigating judge to decide whether this could go to trial.
