Musk, who is set to serve under U.S. President-elect Donald Trump as an external adviser in charge of streamlining the government, waded into Spanish affairs on Sunday by commenting on X about an article that said that rape convictions in Spain's northeastern region of Catalonia were mainly carried out by foreigners.

The move came as Sanchez’s Socialist-led government grapples with growing concerns over rising home prices nationwide. It was part of a broader set of measures, including a pledge to provide state-backed guarantees for specific rentals and the transfer of thousands of homes owned by the national bad bank to a newly established housing agency.
