Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez has firmly said NO to US President Donald Trump’s ultimatums to raise Spain’s defense spending to 5% of GDP! While Trump threatens to “make Spain pay double” and calls them “terrible” for refusing to pay more, Sánchez explains that would mean billions of euros and higher taxes on the middle class, which Spain won’t allow.

Comment below – is Spain right or should it bow to Trump’s demands? Let the debate begin!
