Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez on March 4 called for an end to escalating hostilities in the Middle East and said Madrid was working to assist Spaniards in the region while preparing economic safeguards at home.

“The position of the Government of Spain in the face of this situation is clear and consistent,” Sánchez said in a post on X. “It is the same position we have maintained in Ukraine and Gaza. ... NO TO WAR.”
