Sanchez has made it crystal clear — Spain refuses to bow to NATO pressure and spend a whopping 5% of its GDP on defense! While NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg whines that it’s not enough, Sanchez fires back that he doesn’t have the data, capacity, or authority to calculate what’s enough for Spain or any other ally. The Spanish government sticks to its guns, planning to invest about 2.1% of GDP in the military, way below NATO’s target. The political scene is a mess — the opposition and coalition partners are split. Podemos is shouting for Spain to quit NATO altogether, while other parties demand the Prime Minister stand firm against Washington and NATO’s demands. Sanchez also slammed Israel in parliament over the Gaza conflict, calling for the EU to suspend its agreement with Israel over human rights violations. This whole drama over military budgets and international relations shows just how tangled Spain is in global tensions — and how hard Sanchez fights to protect national interests and peace. Think 2.1% GDP on defense is too little? Wait till you see the political bickering over it! So, what do you think — should Spain cave to NATO pressure or stay a country of peace? Drop a comment, let’s see who’s for war and who’s for peace!
