Of the 12 main categories that constitute inflation, the three categories mentioned above accounted for 80%of the price rose last month.

In order to cope with the rise in oil prices, the Spanish government has taken some measures, such as free vouchers issued by intercity railways to encourage public transportation. However, for the rise in food prices, the Spanish government has not yet proposed specific and effective countermeasures. In the face of turbulent people’s grievances and the deterioration of social security, there is no time to leave the Spanish government.
