Ximo Puig renounces his senatorial status upon his appointment as ambassador to the OECD. With his move to Paris, Puig distances himself from national politics and, especially, Valencian politics.

He resigned his record as a deputy in the Cortes last December. Puig will replace Manuel Escudero, in office since 2018, and his appointment follows in the wake of others sponsored by Pedro Sánchez and which have served to recognize the work of other socialists in the Government.
