Europe is facing one of the greatest threats to peace and security on the continent since the end of World War II.<\/p>\n
S\u00e1nchez's unsupportive message to Spain's allies<\/big><\/p>\n The threat of Russian expansionism and the United States' shift in foreign policy threaten to put Europe in a very difficult situation in the event of Russian aggression<\/strong>. In fact, European countries bordering Russia have long been increasing their defense investments to counter this threat, as evidenced by Russia's aggression against Ukraine. What the Ukrainian people are suffering now could happen tomorrow in Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, or Poland<\/strong> if Europe does not take drastic measures to guarantee its defense.<\/p>\n Unfortunately, some European politicians do not seem concerned about this threat<\/strong>. This is the case of the president of the Spanish government, the socialist Pedro S\u00e1nchez, who yesterday addressed a letter to NATO<\/a> rejecting increasing defense investment to 5% of GDP, claiming: \"That level of spending would be incompatible with our Welfare State and our vision of the world.\"<\/em> S\u00e1nchez's message is like telling Russia's European neighbors to defend themselves: a gesture of lack of solidarity<\/strong> that contrasts with the \"Europeanism\" that the socialist leader usually boasts about.<\/p>\n What S\u00e1nchez doesn't say: socialism is impoverishing Spain<\/big><\/p>\n By now, in Spain we already know that S\u00e1nchez always lies and this case is no exception<\/strong>. The socialist leader has shown very little concern so far for the well-being of the Spanish people. He has been subjecting us to increasing fiscal plunder for years in exchange for increasingly deteriorating services,<\/strong> as can be seen in the constant problems with rail traffic and the great blackout of April 28. S\u00e1nchez is an irresponsible leader who wastes large sums of money on unnecessary political expenses<\/strong>, largely motivated by his pacts with separatist parties, pacts whose amount is paid by all Spaniards.<\/p>\n Furthermore, we must take into account the enormous cost that socialism has for Spain and the losses it causes<\/strong>, due to high labor costs, high taxes, and legal uncertainty. One figure suffices as an example: in 2018, when S\u00e1nchez came to power, net foreign direct investment in Spain was \u20ac45.554 billion:<\/strong> in 2024 it had fallen to \u20ac22.757 billion, just under half<\/a>, with the resulting job losses. In fact, if we remove the makeup from the official statistics, Spain has almost 4 million real unemployed<\/a>. It is the country with the highest unemployment rate in the EU.<\/p>\n A weakened politician who puts his personal interest before national defense<\/big><\/p>\n So, S\u00e1nchez's real reason for rejecting this increase in defense investment is not what he said yesterday. In reality, S\u00e1nchez has a government greatly weakened by corruption scandals<\/strong> and his separatist and far-left partners do not support this increase in defense investment<\/a>, so, when faced with choosing between guaranteeing Spain's defense and solidarity with our allies and his personal interest, the socialist leader chooses his personal interest<\/strong>, which is the only thing that has truly concerned him since coming to power.<\/p>\n Otherwise, if S\u00e1nchez were to assume that 5% of GDP in defense, his communist and separatist partners (some of whom act as mere puppets of Putin) could precipitate the fall of his government and force him to call elections<\/strong>, something that S\u00e1nchez has repeatedly rejected because he knows that the Socialist Party would suffer an electoral disaster due to its corruption scandals<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Spain needs to leave socialism behind to improve its national defense<\/big><\/p>\n Obviously, Spain will have a difficult time fulfilling its commitment to 5% of GDP for defense while socialism continues to destroy the Spanish economy<\/strong>. In this sense, it could be said that the socialists act as Putin's fifth column in Spain, buying large quantities of gas from Russia while prohibiting its extraction on Spanish soil<\/a>, and also maintaining our Armed Forces with a lack of funds that seriously threatens their operability and endangers our national security.<\/p>\n Any attempt to think about the country's future is useless with this government. To be better defended, Spain needs a more solid, stronger economy that attracts investors instead of scaring them away,<\/strong> as well as healthier public finances and a government that is not allied with separatist parties whose ultimate ideal is hatred of the Spanish nation. Instead, Spain has a president who only thinks about himself and disregards the common good,<\/strong> constantly demonstrating that his only concern is staying in power one more day, even if it means degrading our democracy, ruining our economy, and mortgaging our future.<\/p>\n ---<\/p>\n
