Spain has announced a delay in the presentation of its national budget as the government shifts its focus toward emergency measures intended to shield the economy from the escalating conflict in Iran. Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez confirmed the decision on Thursday, stating that the cabinet is currently prioritizing a relief package to address the sharp rise in fuel and electricity prices triggered by the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.
