The prime minister of Spain underlined the need to end the “terrible humanitarian crisis” in the Gaza Strip.
Speaking during NATO’s 75th anniversary summit in Washington on Wednesday, Pedro Sanchez also said the West should set aside “double standards” on Israel's war in Gaza and prepare the ground for an immediate ceasefire.
Spain under Sanchez joined Ireland and Norway late in May in recognizing a Palestinian state in a coordinated attempt to exert added international pressure on Israel to stop its genocidal campaign in Gaza. Dozens of countries have already recognized the international legitimacy of the State of Palestine.
- Sanchez urged the alliance to show the same "unity and consistency" on Gaza as they have demonstrated on Ukraine.
"If we are telling our people that we are supporting Ukraine because we are defending the international law, this is the same to what we have to do towards Gaza,” he said.
