Sanchez: Ready to Send Troops for Peacekeeping in Palestine

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez stated he is ready to send troops for peacekeeping in Palestine when the opportunity arises, and is also considering a similar move for Ukraine. This proposal will be put to a vote in Parliament. Sanchez emphasized the need to recognize an independent, viable, and secure Palestinian state as a solution for stabilizing the region. He also expressed Spain’s commitment to continue supporting Ukraine for as long as necessary. Spain has already recognized the state of Palestine in 2024. Sanchez’s statement comes at a critical time for European security, with Spain actively participating in the design and implementation of new security architectures.
