Pedro Sánchez's government is not only sinking under the weight of corruption scandals, it is also tarnishing Spain's image.
Sánchez approaches several dictatorships and confronts Israel
In recent years, Sánchez has been rapprochement with several dictatorships, including Iran, China, Cuba, Qatar, and the Palestinian National Authority (PNA), which controls Judea and Samaria without holding elections since 2006. Along these lines, a month ago Sánchez falsely accused Israel of "genocide," an accusation that has never launched against the dictatorships of Russia and China, which have been massacring Ukrainians and Uyghurs for years.
If there were any doubts about which side he chooses in a war between a democratic country, Israel, and an Islamist dictatorship, Iran, which has repeatedly threatened to destroy the Jewish State and has been promoting terrorism for that purpose, things became even clearer.
The Sánchez government does not condemn Iranian attacks on Israel.
On Friday, June 13, the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a statement with this title: "The Government of Spain condemns the military escalation in the Middle East following Israeli attacks against Iran." The statement calls for "restraint from the parties" and notes that the "Spanish Embassies in Iran and in the countries of the region" (without mentioning Israel) remain operational, but makes no mention or condemnation of the Iranian attacks against Israel. Over the entire weekend, the Ministry has not issued a single statement condemning these Iranian attacks.
Albares speaks with Iran and six other dictatorships but not with Israel
This past Sunday, the Spanish Minister of Foreign Affairs, the socialist José Manuel Albares, spoke with his Iranian counterpart, Seyed Abbas Araghchi, and did so in a message in which he did not include even the slightest criticism of the Iranian attacks against the civilian population of Israel, which yesterday left ten dead, including several children.
In addition to his Iranian counterpart, Albares also spoke with Qatar (an ally of Iran), Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Lebanon, Jordan and the PNA. That is, he spoke exclusively with Arab governments. On his Twitter account, Albares has not reported any conversations with the Israeli government. In fact, Sánchez's government has broken virtually all bridges with that country after slandering Israel a month ago.
It should be noted that in the The Economist Democracy Index, all seven countries Albares spoke to are listed as authoritarian regimes. In both Iran and Saudi Arabia, dictatorships apply Islamic law with serious violations of fundamental rights against women, homosexuals, and religious minorities. According to that index, Israel is the only democracy in the Middle East, and it is precisely the only country Albares did not speak to.
A tilt that reveals Sánchez's intentions for Spain
Spain not only needs to expel the gang of corrupt people who occupy its current national government. The level of corruption reached by Spanish socialism is extremely serious in a democratic country, but the fact that this government is bringing Spain closer to some of the worst dictatorships and launching all kinds of infamy against the only democracy in the Middle East is even more serious, because it indicates that Sánchez and his gang feel more comfortable with tyrants than with democrats, which gives us an idea of their plans for Spain.
