‘No to the war’: Spain digs in as rift with US deepens

MADRID: Spain’s prime minister defiantly posted “No to the war” on Wednesday, deepening a rift with the United States after Madrid refused the use of its bases to attack Iran and Washington threatened trade reprisals. Spain’s Socialist Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez had already angered US President Donald Trump with a series of other policies. Sanchez has refused to join NATO allies in a pledge to boost defense spending to five percent of GDP as demanded by Trump, and has fiercely criticized Israel’s war in Gaza.
