Spain's Labor Ministry says the number of people filing for unemployment benefits rose by 59,536 in November with a total seeking benefits of 4,420,462. Spain's jobless rate stands at a 15-year high of 21.5 percent, the highest in the eurozone, and the economy posted zero growth in the third quarter. Party leader Mariano Rajoy is due to take office as prime minister Dec. 21. He is expected to introduce severe economic reforms in a bid to reboot the ailing economy. (Foto:Alberto Di Lolli/AP/dapd)
