Sánchez poses a threat to Spain’s national security. His decisions, driven by ideological posturing, are the product of a pathological ego, obsessed only with shielding himself from the consequences of his actions. To this end, he incessantly spins narratives in the desperate hope that—while justifying his abuses and outrages—they might succeed in mobilizing a decomposing Left that no longer has any discourse other than hatred for their ideological enemy.
Spaniards deserve to know whose interests he serves and what lies behind his alignment with Hamas, the Houthis in Yemen, and Maduro in Venezuela. What is the reason for his interest in aligning himself with Khamenei’s Ayatollahs, while the blood of the dozens of Iranians murdered in a single week in January is still fresh?
Spaniards cannot tolerate that the personal agenda of an individual haunted by his legal horizon force us to align Spain with every dictatorship and criminal regime on the planet. This is a matter of dignity for one of the world’s oldest nations, whose people are part of Western civilization and defend ideals such as freedom, truth, and the sacred nature of the individual. But it is also a matter of pure pragmatism, realism, national interest, affinity, identity, and Atlanticist vocation.
Sánchez no longer just compromises Spain’s interests; he threatens them. Countries like Morocco and so many others were quick to express their support for the “American friend.” Sánchez, conversely, has decided to subordinate our interests to his hidden and unknown agenda and is antagonizing our principal ally, the USA. That Sánchez’s policy massively favors Morocco’s interests is more than evident—as, indeed, has been the case with his entire policy since he came to power.
Sánchez’s decisions gravely affect trust, which is the foundation of cooperation in fields as sensitive and consequential for national security as the exchange of information between the intelligence services of allied countries. They leave Spain in a state of immense vulnerability. Meanwhile, the friends Sánchez makes are, without exception, criminals, terrorists, dictators, and drug traffickers—largely radical Islamists. That is the company to which they want to condemn us. All while leaving Spain’s borders wide open to uncontrolled illegal immigration.
Spain entered a dangerous drift back in 2004, when bombings brought to power a sinister individual whom we later learned had already made deals with terrorists in the years leading up to 11M. Today, Spain is at grave danger. Not only because of the impoverishment, violence, and crime generated by the policies of these two decades.
The message emerging from Madrid is terrible for our foreign policy and, consequently, our domestic policy. Spain is neither defending her national interests nor acting as part of an alliance of shared values centered on the West. Spain is dismantling her defenses one by one by order of this government, which prioritizes anyone’s interests over those of the Spanish people.
We are in a moment of extreme emergency, and all Spaniards must be aware of the colossal dangers of being defenseless and isolated in today’s world. Even more so when it is already evident that the criminal Sánchez is seeking to forge alliances with dictatorships, satrapies, and rogue governments to perpetuate himself in power.
VOX and its Disenso Foundation will continue to fight tirelessly alongside our allies to disseminate and show the whole world the truth: that Spain is one thing, and a traitorous, corrupt, and criminal government—which will soon end up in prison and the dustbin of history—is quite another.
