“Of course, you know, there's always a trade-off, there's always this kind of debate within our government, but at the end of the day, it's also true that real allies are like real friends. They tail each other the truth no matter what. And when it comes to our relationship with the US, I mean, the whole European Union, it is true that we want to keep that transatlantic bond, but if you go into the details, what you see is that we have an open trade war, which was open unilaterally by the US administration. There's also a question mark when it comes to the respect of our territorial integrity. That means Greenland. And of course, Europe is not in the negotiations process when it comes to the security European architecture and the end of the Ukrainian war.”

“I debated with my team, I debated, of course, within the Palestinian government. I also thought about it because this has been a very consistent and very coherent position when it comes to international politics because we're facing a weaknessing of all these international order based on rules. since the Ukrainian war and afterwards the Gaza Strip war and nowadays the Iran war, I think it's very important to have a consistent approach when it comes to fulfill our obligations in the international realm and of course fulfilling international legality. This has been our approach when the US administration asked us to use our military basis in the southern of Spain and we of course reject the use of This military bases to, let's say, deploy their military capabilities in the Middle East.”

“Well, thank you very much for having me and ready to and happy to answer all these questions. And as you said already, I think that Spain has shifted its approach when it comes to these illegal wars, that if you take the experience of the Iraqi war, it didn't bring anything good for the Middle East, for Europe and for the whole world. So we need to have the courage to learn lessons and look for other solutions in order to resolve most of these instability challenges that we are facing around the world.”

“Would like to definitely have the UK on board the game. I think that the framework has changed because of Brexit, but on the other hand, I think that societies can make mistakes, and I think it was a mistake for the UK to leave the European Union.”

“Iran War. We're facing a weaknessing of all these international order based on rules. Real allies are like real friends. They tail each other the truth no matter what. When it comes to our relationship with the US, I mean, we want to keep that transatlantic bond. But if you go into the details, what you see is that we have an open trade war, which was open unilaterally by the US administration. I do believe that Europe needs to be a force of good because our enemies, what they want is to have a more fragmented Europe.”
