The third government of Pedro Sánchez was formed on 21 November 2023, following the latter's election as prime minister of Spain by the Congress of Deputies on 16 November and his swearing-in on 17 November, as a result of the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE) and Sumar being able to muster a majority of seats in the Parliament with external support from Republican Left of Catalonia (ERC), Together for Catalonia (Junts), EH Bildu, the Basque Nationalist Party (PNV), the Galician Nationalist Bloc (BNG) and Canarian Coalition (CCa) following the 2023 general election. It succeeded the second Sánchez government and has been the incumbent government of Spain since 21 November 2023, a total of 848 days, or 2 years, 3 months and 25 days.
The cabinet comprises members of the PSOE (including its sister party, the Socialists' Party of Catalonia, PSC) and Sumar—with the involvement of Unite Movement (SMR), United Left (IU), the Communist Party of Spain (PCE), More Madrid (MM) and Catalonia in Common (Comuns)—as well as independents proposed by both parties.
