Spain’s incoming Prime Minister has given the majority of cabinet positions to women.
With 11 of 17 positions now being held by women, including some of the biggest portfolios such as education, finance, education, and defence.
In a televised statement, Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, said his new government was made up of people who "shared the same vision of a progressive society that was both modernising and pro-European".
Sánchez promised his government would be "socialist and have gender parity".
He has made a point of sourcing talent from outside his party as well as within.
The women in his cabinet include a climate change treaty negotiator, a top Eurocrat and Spain's top anti-terror prosecutor.
