Spanish Minister of Science, Innovation and Universities, Diana Morant, has publicly rejected the possibility of inviting members of the political party Vox to observe the total solar eclipse scheduled for Wednesday, August 12, at the Yebes Observatory in Guadalajara. Morant justified her refusal by stating that a productive dialogue between the scientific community and the party is not possible, characterizing the political group as charlatans.
The statement highlights the ongoing ideological friction between the current administration and Vox regarding the role of scientific discourse in public policy. By framing the exclusion as a fundamental incompatibility between science and the party's rhetoric, the Minister underscored a firm boundary between her department's institutional activities and the political opposition.
