Spanish Prime Minister's video infuriates social media users: "Shame on you"

At the height of the immigration crisis shaking Spain, Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez appears to be in a parallel universe, where the most pressing issue is not the situation at the country's borders, but his summer playlist.

While public criticism is mounting and the turmoil in Ceuta is dominating headlines, Sánchez chose to upload a video to TikTok like a social media influencer, revealing his favorite summer songs. There was no address to the nation, no mention of the situation, and no indication that a real crisis was unfolding outside the frame.

Naturally, the backlash was swift. One user commented: "Sorry, bro, isn't there a huge problem in your country right now?", while another added: "Is this really the time to upload such videos, with everything happening in Ceuta? While Spain is dealing with such a serious situation, you are more concerned with a playlist of songs than with providing explanations and finding real solutions. Shame."

The Spanish leader's digital team also came under fire: "I think you should replace whoever manages your social media," wrote one user. Another lashed out: "Ceuta is burning, and you are uploading a playlist."
