Felipe VI pronounces in this session the first political speech after the presentation of the amnesty law rejected by PP and Vox and after the pacts that the PSOE signed with ERC and Junts. The Solemn Opening of the legislature is held four months after the general elections of July 23, in which the current deputies and senators were elected.
