Torres sees it as an "outrage" and an "absurdity" that the Supreme Court is suspending the vote for naturalized citizens under the 'grandchildren law'

Spain's Supreme Court has maintained its decision to suspend the voting rights of certain citizens who acquired nationality under the 'Ley de Nietos' (Grandchildren Law), a ruling that has drawn sharp criticism from the Spanish government. Ángel Víctor Torres, Minister of Territorial Policy and Democratic Memory, publicly denounced the measure, describing it as an "outrage," "nonsense," and a "dislate."

The judicial decision also included a dissenting opinion from a Supreme Court magistrate, who argued that voting should have been permitted following the November 29 call to elections. Both the government and the PSOE have expressed formal regret over the court's refusal to lift the suspension affecting these descendants of exiles.
