PRESS REVIEW – Thursday, May 28, 2026: Papers discuss whether Russia could potentially invade Europe. But first, Spanish front pages cover the latest developments in the political corruption scandal that has hit the Socialist Party. Elsewhere, US President Donald Trump's renovation of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool continues to make headlines. Finally, some dogs are fashionable, but one pup is in the dog house.
Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez and his ruling party are under a lot of scrutiny in Spain, and feature on all the front pages there. El Pais reports that the headquarters of the Socialist Party was raided on Wednesday as part of a corruption investigation. The right-wing paper La Razon condemns "the spectacle of arrests, prosecutions and police raids which have tarnished the already damaged reputation of Spanish socialism". ABC says that Sanchez should have stepped down a long time ago, especially after he was first investigated for influence peddling. La Vanguardia says that the prime minister has again refused to quit and intends to see his mandate through to 2027.
