Irene Montero

Irene Montero is a well-known figure in the Spanish political party Podemos. Recently, she has been actively participating in discussions and events centered around the potential formation of a broader left-wing coalition in Spain. This is evidenced by her joint appearances with Gabriel Rufián (ERC) in Barcelona, where they discussed the future of the left, and her planned participation in an event in Valencia alongside Mónica Oltra, Sira Rego, and Rosangela da Silva, focusing on ecofeminism and anti-war sentiments. These activities highlight her continued relevance in Spanish politics and her efforts to unify the left. However, there is resistance from within ERC regarding Rufián's push for a nationwide left-wing alliance, indicating challenges in achieving broader unity. Her involvement in these discussions and events makes her a central figure in the ongoing debate about the future direction and potential alliances of the left in Spain.
