The announcement is clearly <a href=\"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/2025\/09\/25\/sanchez-uses-the-navy-to-create-smokescreens-one-embezzlement-to-cover-up-another\/\">a new smokescreen to cover up the corruption scandals affecting the government<\/a>, a distraction launched, in fact, hours before it was learned that S\u00e1nchez's wife, Bego\u00f1a G\u00f3mez, will be tried by a jury for an alleged crime of embezzlement.<\/p>\n<div class=\"foto_piedefoto\"><a href=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/54811939015_4a37a0125a_o.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/54811939015_4a47cd5bb5_c.jpg\" style=\"width:100%; height:auto; border:0px;\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"piedefoto\">The maritime action vessel (BAM) \"Furor\" P-46 (Photo: Armada Espa\u00f1ola).<\/div>\n<p>The government's campaign against Israel has intensified alongside news of these corruption scandals. <strong>It's worth asking to what extent the Spanish government is coordinating this action with other governments<\/strong>, and not just those of European Union member states. <strong>It is compromising the international prestige of our Navy and the image of Spain<\/strong>, and it's only fair to know who they have been able to discuss this issue with in order to make such a decision.<\/p>\n<div class=\"foto_piedefoto\"><a href=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/54811594406_4a47cd5bb5_o.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/54811594406_56f7ab6b2d_c.jpg\" style=\"width:100%; height:auto; border:0px;\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"piedefoto\">The meeting between the foreign ministers of Iran and Spain in New York, revealed by Iran this Wednesday morning (Photo: Iranian Embassy in Spain)).<\/div>\n<p><big>Before that announcement there was a meeting between the Spanish government and Iran<\/big><\/p>\n<p>Coincidentally, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/IraninSpain\/status\/1970751509387239843\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">yesterday morning the Iranian Embassy in Spain reported<\/a> about <strong>a meeting between Spanish Foreign Minister Jos\u00e9 Manuel Albares and Seyed Abbas Araghchi<\/strong>, the Iranian regime's Foreign Minister, a meeting held <em>\"within the framework of his visit to New York to participate in the session of the United Nations General Assembly\"<\/em>. This meeting was also reported by <a href=\"https:\/\/en.mfa.ir\/portal\/NewsView\/775514\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the website of the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs<\/a>, showing a photo of the meeting. On YouTube, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=yE4qVUoGMDg\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Iran Monitor broadcast this short, silent video of the meeting on September 23<\/a>, so the meeting could have taken place on Tuesday:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Iran\u2019s FM Araghchi met Spain\u2019s FM Jose Manuel Albares on the sidelines of the 80th UNGA in New York.\" width=\"665\" height=\"374\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/yE4qVUoGMDg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><em>\"During the meeting, <strong>both ministers reviewed the state of bilateral relations and agreed on the importance of boosting ties<\/strong> in areas of mutual interest,\"<\/em> the Iranian embassy said, adding: <em>\"They also discussed various issues on the regional and international agenda. In particular, <strong>they exchanged views on the grave humanitarian situation in occupied Palestine<\/strong>, stressing the urgency of the international community taking immediate measures <strong>to end the blockade of Gaza, stop the genocide, and ensure respect for human rights<\/strong> and the Palestinian people's right to self-determination.\"<\/em><\/p>\n<p>It is a paradox that a Spanish minister has agreed to <strong>debate human rights with a minister of a dictatorship that systematically violates those rights<\/strong>. Let us remember that until a month ago, and as part of the wave of repression against the protests calling for democracy that took place in the country, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.abc.es\/internacional\/iran-ejecutado-840-personas-ano-impacto-desproporcionado-20250829135356-nt.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the Iranian dictatorship had already carried out more than 840 executions<\/a>. To this we must add a fact that is known worldwide: <strong>Iran supports Vladimir Putin's dictatorship in its war against Ukraine<\/strong> (it has done so by selling Russia numerous Shahed drones, which are being used to attack Ukrainian cities) <strong>and it has also been financing and providing weapons to Hamas and Hezbollah terrorists<\/strong> in Gaza and Lebanon, respectively.<\/p>\n<p><big>The Iranian minister praised the Spanish government for its stance against Israel<\/big><\/p>\n<p>The Iranian embassy added: <em>\"<strong>Minister Araghchi acknowledged Spain's leading role in denouncing the genocide and violations of international law in Gaza.<\/strong> He also stressed the shared responsibility of all States, in accordance with international law and humanitarian and ethical principles, <strong>to hold accountable those responsible for crimes<\/strong> and those who threaten international peace and security.\"<\/em> Apparently, <strong>applause from Hamas terrorists wasn't enough: now S\u00e1nchez is also receiving praise from the Iranian dictatorship.<\/strong> A disgrace for Spain.<\/p>\n<p>Significantly, <strong>that meeting with Iran has not been revealed by the Spanish government through any means<\/strong>. In Spain, almost no media outlet has reported on that meeting. It's as if it never took place, or as if it were of no newsworthy interest <strong>for the Spanish government to meet with an Islamist dictatorship hostile to Israel hours before announcing a new provocation against the Jewish State<\/strong>. A provocation that, moreover, compromises our Navy, forced to send a ship to protect a flotilla that intends to enter a combat zone, ignoring all warnings from the Israeli government.<\/p>\n<p>---<\/p>\n<p><small>Main photo: Armada Espa\u00f1ola.<\/small><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Spanish Navy has become the center of international public attention today due to a highly controversial government decision.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[19534,11545,10398],"tags":[12385,25369,822,95,15425,2721,24668,10669],"class_list":["post-60919","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-defense-portada-eng","category-navy","category-spain","tag-bam-furor-p-46","tag-flotilla-sumud-global","tag-iran","tag-israel","tag-jose-manuel-albares","tag-pedro-sanchez-castejon","tag-seyed-abbas-araghchi","tag-spanish-navy"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/60919"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=60919"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/60919\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=60919"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=60919"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=60919"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
