Spain’s Prime Minister Opposes U.S.-Israeli Strikes On Iran
6 hours ago
Spain’s Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez is standing firm in his opposition to U.S. and Israeli military strikes on Iran, despite facing trade threats from Donald Trump.
Sánchez said Spain rejects the attacks and will not allow the United States to use joint U.S.-Spanish military bases on Spanish soil for operations targeting Iran. His comments mark one of the strongest rebukes from a European leader since the conflict escalated.
The Spanish leader warned that the war risks “playing Russian roulette” with millions of lives and described the strikes as unjustifiable. He has called for restraint and a renewed push for diplomatic solutions to prevent further destabilization in the region.
The dispute underscores growing tensions among Western allies as the conflict in Iran expands and global political and economic pressures intensify.
