Spain's Pedro Sánchez hits back at Trump threat to sever trade saying 'no to war'

In a 10-minute televised address Sánchez reflected on the wars in Ukraine and Gaza as well as the Iraq War more than 20 years ago and said "the government's position can be summed up in four words: No to war".

Trump threatened to impose a full trade embargo on Spain in response to Madrid's refusal to allow the US to use the jointly run bases at Morón and Rotafor for strikes on Iran.

"Spain has been terrible," Trump said during a meeting with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz on Tuesday.
