About

Álava is one of the three provinces that make up the Basque Country, an autonomous community in northern Spain. The region has been in the news recently due to its involvement in various political and economic issues. In April 2026, the president of the PNV party, Aitor Esteban, called for a collective effort to avoid the loss of autonomy by EH Bildu. Meanwhile, Álava has also been affected by the conflict in Iran, with the province's diputaciones allocating 540 million euros to support local businesses. Additionally, there have been developments related to ETA prisoners, including Angel Telleria Uriarte, who is set to be released on semilibertad. The region has also seen changes in its healthcare system, with farmacias preparing for a modernization of their practices. Furthermore, the government and the lehendakari of Álava, Imanol Pradales, have agreed on a cogestion plan for the region's airports.
