The Prime Minister, Pedro Sánchez, has defended the need for the European Union to take steps forward in its integration and move towards a common defense, highlighting that, in his opinion, it is not essential to have "unanimous agreement from the 27 member states".
Thus, during an interview published this Sunday in 'La Vanguardia' and reported by 'ElConstitucional.es', the head of the Executive stated that "we can advance a series of countries in that integration process towards a truly European army, with a truly European defense industry". In this context, Sánchez has warned that the EU must act in the face of a possible invasion of Greenland by the United States, presided over by Donald Trump, since, in his opinion, that scenario "would make Vladimir Putin the happiest man in the world, because he would see his attempt to invade Ukraine legitimized". Likewise, he warned that such a situation would mean, textually, the death knell for NATOTrump escalates confrontation with Sánchez
As we have been reporting on 'ElConstitucional.es', diplomatic relations between the United States and Spain are going through a particularly complex moment. The lack of understanding between Donald Trump, increasingly radicalized in his approaches, and the Spanish Prime Minister, Pedro Sánchez, is beginning to be reflected in concrete decisions in the international arena. One of the most recent is the exclusion of Spain from the preparations for the next G20 summit, scheduled for December on US soil.
According to Bloomberg, this decision is part of the Trump Administration's strategy to distance itself from some traditional allies while seeking to redefine the global geopolitical balance. The G20 summit will be held on December 14 and 15 at a golf resort owned by Trump himself, located in Miami, and will bring together the world's major developed and emerging economies. Washington is considering reducing the influence of countries like Spain and other governments that do not fully align with its political stances.
