Second government of Adrián Barbón

The second government of Adrián Barbón was formed on 1 August 2023, following the latter's reelection as President of the Principality of Asturias by the General Junta of the Principality of Asturias on 19 July and his swearing-in on 27 July, as a result of the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE) emerging as the largest parliamentary force at the 2023 regional election and reaching a coalition agreement with Assembly for Asturias, that comprises United Left of Asturias, More Asturias and Asturian Left. It succeeded his first government and is the incumbent Government of the Principality of Asturias since 1 August 2023.[2][3]
