Spain has pushed back strongly after U.S. President Donald Trump threatened to cut off trade with the country. Prime Minister Pedro S\u00e1nchez responded firmly, summarizing his position with a clear message: Spain will not support actions it believes violate international law. Tensions escalated following the recent U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran, launched after failed nuclear negotiations. The attacks killed Iran\u2019s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and several senior officials. Casualty figures vary: Iran\u2019s Red Crescent reports at least 555 deaths, while the U.S.-based Human Rights Activists News Agency estimates the toll at around 742 people, including many civilians.<\/p>\n

S\u00e1nchez has openly criticized the military action, calling it an \u201cunjustified and dangerous intervention.\u201d Spanish officials have also made clear that U.S. military bases in Spain will not be used for operations against Iran unless they comply with international law and existing agreements. Foreign Minister Jos\u00e9 Manuel Albares stated that the bases \u201care not being used\u2014nor will they be used\u2014for anything outside the agreements with the United States or the framework of the UN Charter.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Defense Minister Margarita Robles echoed that position, emphasizing that any military activity must follow international legal standards. Trump reacted sharply to Spain\u2019s stance, criticizing the NATO ally during remarks at the White House. He suggested he could halt trade with Spain, claiming the country\u2019s leadership had been \u201cunfriendly\u201d and warning that the U.S. could stop business with Spain entirely.

\nResponding from his residence at La Moncloa, S\u00e1nchez defended Spain\u2019s position. He said the country would not support actions it believes are harmful to global stability or against its values. \u201cThe question is whether we stand for peace and international law,\u201d S\u00e1nchez said, summarizing Spain\u2019s stance in four words:\u00a0\u201cNo to war.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Spain and the United States maintain strong economic ties, with billions of dollars in trade each year. Spanish officials stressed that any trade decisions must respect international agreements and European Union regulations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
