Spain's Sanchez Opposes US-Israel Strikes on Iran Amid Trade Tensions with Trump

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez condemned the US-Israel military strikes on Iran, warning the conflict risks a humanitarian disaster and likening it to playing "Russian roulette with the destiny of millions." He reaffirmed Spain's stance of "No to the war," rejecting complicity despite threats from US President Donald Trump to cut trade ties. Spain also barred US aircraft involved in the offensive from using its southern bases, escalating tensions between the NATO allies. Sanchez cited past conflicts' negative consequences and criticized leaders exploiting war to mask domestic failures.
