Biography

He was born in Burgos, but moved to Vitoria-Gasteiz at the age of four. He studied law at the University of the Basque Country, and subsequently worked as a lawyer for 25 years. He is married and has two children. He has lived in Mendoza since around 2000.[4]

He became a member of the Basque Nationalist Party in 2002, and in 2007 he was elected to the Juntas Generales of Álava. During his first term, he served as deputy spokesman for the party under Deputy General Xabier Agirre. When Agirre left in 2011 after the election of Javier de Andrés, he became spokesman of the party in the Juntas Generales.[4]

In the 2015 election, his party became the largest in the chamber and subsequently formed a minority coalition government with the Socialist Party of the Basque Country. Both coalition partners improved their results in the 2019 election, resulting in his reelection, this time heading a majority coalition government.[5] He was reelected to a third term in 2023.[6]
