Spanish Prime Minister Sanchez publicly stated today that if it can be proven that Israel has committed human rights violations, the European Commission must respond to the request to “suspend trade ties with Israel.” In February of this year, Spain and Ireland requested European Commission President von der Leyen to take strong measures against “Israel's possible human rights violations in the Gaza Strip,” such as suspending trade with Israel, but the European Commission has yet to respond to this request. At the same time, Sanchez said that the Spanish government continues to condemn Israel's attack on the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon, while denouncing Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's act of urging the United Nations to withdraw UNIFIL from the war zone in southern Lebanon. Sanchez also once again urged the international community to stop sending weapons to Israel.
