The Government of Spain has condemned Iran's attack on Israel. He did so through a message from the president, Pedro Sánchez, through the social network as it has condemned and will always condemn all forms of violence that threaten the safety and well-being of innocent civilians," Sánchez said.
"The response of all international leaders demands responsibility and restraint," Sánchez added. "We must learn from history and find a way to resolve conflicts through diplomatic means, avoiding at all costs an even greater escalation," stated the President of the Government.
This explicit condemnation did not appear in Pedro Sánchez's first reactions, made late on Saturday night, when he expressed his "utmost concern" about the "events in the Middle East" and opted to "avoid a regional escalation at all costs." .
An absence that aroused some criticism in the last few hours, such as that of the head of the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Europe, Daniel Meron, who responded that "he has forgotten to condemn the attack."
Spain has become one of the international protagonist countries in the conflict in the Middle East after the president himself indicated that he will recognize Palestine as a State with full sovereignty.
