Spanish PM Urges NATO Leaders to Eschew 'Double Standards' on Gaza and Ukraine

cross-posted from: feddit.org/post/861420

While joining leaders of fellow NATO countries in voicing support for defending Ukraine from Russian aggression, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez on Wednesday implored Western nations to avoid “double standards” in the application of international law regarding Israel’s war on Gaza.

Sánchez, a member of the Spanish Socialist Workers’ Party who has led his country since 2018, said that Western leaders must have “consistent political positions” on Ukraine and Gaza.

“If we are telling our people that we are supporting Ukraine because we are defending the international law, this is the same that we have to do toward Gaza… say that we are backing the international law, especially the international humanitarian law,” Sánchez said, drawing applause from the audience.

He’s absolutely right. We need to uphold international law as much as we can. Israel is blatantly violating it.

This isn’t the first time I’ve heard such good sense coming from Spain, lately. I normally don’t hear much in the news headlines, but I hope I continue to. We need more vocal leaders like this challenging Western hypocrisy.

It's sad that asking NATO Governments to not be fucking hypocrites regarding international law is something applause-worthy now
