Spain’s Foreign Minister Decries EU Double Standards On Gaza, Ukraine | ECFR | Dawn News English

Spain’s foreign minister urged the EU to do more about the attacks on Gaza and warned that the bloc’s double standards on Palestinians and Ukraine are growing more and more obvious.
“It’s a matter of upholding international law. If the EU doesn’t speak united on that, I don’t know who in the world will,” said Jose Manuel Albares at a European Council on Foreign Relations conference in Madrid.
Albares lamented how the EU was able to speak with one voice on Russia’s attack on Ukraine and Hamas’ surprise attack on Israel last Oct. 7 but not on Israel’s apparent violations of international legal conventions.

[@jashuasmith9361]

Some people don’t care about the right side of history. They want to sin. Get away with it. Because they know when its found out. They are already dead and gone.

At last, foreign minister who prefer talk in piece and making relationship😌👍🏼, unlike those who keep sending weapon and money. 🤦‍♂️

[@karinetracylune7798]

L état d’israël n’a jamais était reconnu plus que l Etat Palestinien. Les palestiniens ont droit a leurs état seul eux peut décider avec l’appui des États qui ont reconnu la Palestine 🇵🇸 ❤✌️🌹

[@hichic4390]

Two states and peace seem good to talk about.However, how is it going to be done? The current reality on the ground with what you are talking about is unattainable unless See Zionism for what it really is, not a myth

[@indarsamlal4558]

[@user-us6ld6ln9c]

Than yuo span spik true

[@nawazishkhan2080]

Correct

[@RussellAlami]

Spain had its own Fascists, who carried-out Massacres , so they understand the Genocide. Gaza is very-much like Guernica

[@chanking7520]

Boycott all travels, investments and relationship with these EU nations. Go to Spain instead.

[@gkagara]

Good thinking

[@dianacasey6002]

Sorry Spain is sick of tourists and is protesting against them.

[@foocheongwong7208]

World able to witness between Evils & Angels now Karma will prevail

[@n8_b_h]

So pragmatic. The dream is that there is NO Israel. Go back to 1947 Palestine with no colonizers. Not possible right now, so I agree with this guy. Stop the wars.

[@1258-Eckhart]

What's the reference to Ukraine? Where did Albares mention this?

[@razianaimuddin6546]

There are talks are going on but there are no action so far and innocent civilian are suffering every minute of the day and night no one should go through pain they are going now immediate ceasefire needed right now

[@Heavenlyrules]

Spain on the right side. Germany on the sewer side

[@tacazkhan2259]

Reality

[@user-ho6nz8fn2o]

Mad respect and love for Spain. 🫡❤❤

❤

[@mojojojo1529]

"One day, peace will come back" which day would that be, given that the violent conflict between Jews and Palestinian Arabs in the territory of Palestine has been going on for over a century now?

[@rm4po4]

I bet a lot of NATO leaders spit up their champagne when they heard this...they probably then died laughing. Especially Jens, just like he did when Russia said NATO expansion in Ukraine was a red line.

[@GlennLeinster]

Well done Spain people with a big heart,,,,free free Palestine

[@risbolensky3921]

And Kosovo which should be for Spain even more important

[@sadaspahich6612]

# Free, Free Palestine 🇵🇸🍉

[@domenicamassaro8221]

I hope that the voices of dissent into the EU raise and become more numerous. Pustula Von der Leyen behaves like she is the queen of Europe.

[@user-bg5ig2gv2c]

Masha Allah, may Allah bless Spain a,Ireland and other EU nations and hasten the liberation of the Palestinian state living in peace with Israel for eternity, and in Dignity for both peoples, in shaa Allah

[@angusmackaskill3035]

Israel good, russia bad. Please explain

[@captainwin6333]

Von Der Leyen looks like a 1940's baddie.

[@fundidoarrojo269]

But these aren't double standards, it's the same standard: we, European vassals, are working for the hegemony of the USA both in Ukraine are in Gaza.

[@AhmadyarAhmadi-pm6kv]

Love Spain more then ever and never had chance to visit Spain but now going to visit soon and very excited ❤

[@BrianQuinn-ms7iy]

Internacionalno pravo je komedija a ne pravo!To je odavno prestalo da postoji!Na primer Amerika,da li za nju postoji neko internacionalno pravo?Drzava koja ne priznaje medjunarodni sud pravde ali se pozivaju na isti sud kada je neko drugi u pitanju😂😂Americká doktrina:ako medjunarodni sud uhapsi bilo kog americkog vojnika sravnicemo ih sa zemljom,to su reci americke vlade!!Toliko o medjunarodnom pravu,komedija kao i UN😂😂
