The government of socialist Pedro S\u00e1nchez is making an astonishing display of lack of judgment and responsibility in foreign policy.<\/p>\n
Houthi rebels threaten Red Sea trade route<\/big><\/p>\n In recent weeks, the attacks by Yemen's Houthi rebels<\/strong>, puppets of the Islamic dictatorship of Iran, The US-led operation to confront that threat<\/big><\/p>\n The Houthis' threats are not only directed against Israel: they are a danger to global trade. Therefore, this Monday, December 18, the US announced an international coalition<\/a> to ensure freedom of navigation in the Red Sea, in a mission called Operation Guardian Prosperity. The US Department of Defense indicated that Spain would be one of the participating countries<\/strong>, since the Spanish Navy already has a presence in that part of the world within the framework of Operation Atalanta of the European Union (EU).<\/p>\n S\u00e1nchez's government stands out in harmony with its communist partners<\/big><\/p>\n Obviously, when the US announced Spain's participation it was because it had previously spoken with the Spanish government. However, this Tuesday<\/strong> the S\u00e1nchez government indicated that it would only participate in this mission under the protection of NATO or the EU<\/a>, stating that Spain would not get involved \"unilaterally\" in that operation. That same day, the communist partners of S\u00e1nchez's government<\/strong> accused him of \"following the US\"<\/a>, a country that they accuse of being \"arming Israel in the middle of a genocide\"<\/em><\/strong>, which is how the extreme left describes Israel's military response to the Hamas terrorist attack, an attack that S\u00e1nchez's communist partners have not condemned<\/a>.<\/p>\n S\u00e1nchez vetoes the EU mission in support of that operation<\/big><\/p>\n This Wednesday, The EU gave the green light to Spain to participate in that operation<\/a>. And in case there was any doubt, this Thursday the EU itself joined that mission<\/a>, opening the door to extending its Operation Atalanta in the Indian Ocean, in which it participates Spain, extends to the Red Sea. The EU decision was made unanimously<\/strong>, that is, it necessarily had to have the support of the government of Spain, but a few hours later S\u00e1nchez backed down and vetoed that mission<\/a>. Thus, it is now clear that the NATO or EU protection was an excuse: Spain will not participate because S\u00e1nchez does not want to.<\/strong><\/p>\n S\u00e1nchez's increasingly dangerous alignment with Iran<\/big><\/p>\n The Spanish government has not even bothered to explain this diplomatic lurch, but it is not difficult to imagine its reason: Sanchez's hostility against Israel is so manifest<\/strong> that he even received praise from Hamas terrorists for it<\/a>. As we have already seen above, this mission was rejected by the Spanish extreme left, which includes two of the European parties most hostile to Israel<\/a> and at the same time they have links with Iran<\/a> and with Palestinian terrorism<\/a>.<\/p>\n Although he pretends to have an international image of a moderate social democratic leader, in reality S\u00e1nchez is a left-wing extremist<\/strong> and had no qualms about aligning itself with Hamas's allies in the UN<\/a> (including Iran<\/strong>) at the end of October, supporting a text that did not condemn Hamas and omitted any reference to those kidnapped by that terrorist group.<\/p>\n S\u00e1nchez is not averse to aligning himself with Iran at the UN, but joining our greatest ally, the US, causes him serious reservations<\/strong>, not only because Biden has been reluctant to be photographed with him, as if he were politically a plague, but also because of the ideological anti-Americanism that the Spanish extreme left has been nurturing for decades<\/strong>. An extreme left in which it is fair to classify a socialist fanatic who feels more comfortable with communists and ETA sympathizers than with the democratic right.<\/p>\n S\u00e1nchez is destroying the international image of Spain<\/big><\/p>\n Of course, S\u00e1nchez must believe that snubbing our allies and destroying Spain's image as he does will have no effect<\/strong>, but he is terribly wrong. Of course he's going to have them. Facing the world, in this issue of the Red Sea coalition and in his policy against Israel, S\u00e1nchez is acting as a puppet of Iran, as if the ayatollahs were pulling their strings, and that could turn Spain into a pariah abroad<\/strong>, a country without international weight, which only pleases the most corrupt and criminal regimes (Iran, Venezuela, Cuba, China and even Russia, with his increase in imports of Russian gas<\/a>). <\/p>\n Sanchez's international image is collapsing faster and faster<\/strong>, and although the scene is complacent for those of us who do not feel even the slightest appreciation for this unscrupulous politician, it must be noted that in his fall is dragging Spain with it<\/strong>. The day these socialist fanatics leave power, it will take Spain many years to recover from the damage that S\u00e1nchez has done to his image in the world.<\/p>\n ---<\/p>\n
