PredecessorLambán II

The government of Jorge Azcón was formed on 12 August 2023, following the latter's election as President of the Government of Aragon by the Cortes of Aragon on 10 August and his swearing-in on 11 August, as a result of the People's Party (PP) emerging as the largest parliamentary force at the 2023 regional election.[1][2] It succeeded the second Lambán government and is the incumbent Government of Aragon since 12 August 2023, a total of 493 days.

Until 2024, the cabinet comprised members of the PP, Vox—at the sub-ministry level—the Aragonese Party (PAR), as well as a number of independents proposed by the first two parties.[3][4] On 11 July 2024, Vox leader Santiago Abascal forced the break up of all PP–Vox governments at the regional level over a national controversy regarding the distribution of unaccompanied migrant minors among the autonomous communities.[5]

[edit]

Azcón's government saw a number of cabinet changes during its tenure:

  • On 11 July 2024, Vox leader Santiago Abascal announced that his party was breaking all of its regional governments with the People's Party (PP) as a result of the later agreeing to a nationwide distribution of unaccompanied migrant minors among the autonomous communities under its control.[5][7]

The Council of Government is structured into the offices for the president, the vice president, 10 ministries and the post of spokesperson of the Government.[8] From July 2024, the Council was reducen to nine ministries and would include only one vice president.[9]
