SAIZ AND TOLÓN REPLACE PILAR ALEGRÍA
The President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, announced this Monday the appointment of Milagros Tolón as the new Minister of Education and the appointment of the current Minister of Integration, Social Security and Migration, Elma Saiz, as the new Government Spokesperson.
