Spain says Trump is 'playing Russian roulette' over Iran
The Independent
|March 05, 2026
Spain’s prime minister Pedro Sanchez once again criticised the US and Israel’s military actions in Iran, standing firm yesterday against fresh trade threats from Washington and warning that the Iran war risked “playing Russian roulette” with millions of lives.
President Donald Trump on Tuesday threatened to end US trade with Spain because of Spain’s refusal to allow the US to use joint military bases in the country in its attacks on Iran.
“We are not going to be complicit in something that is bad for the world and is also contrary to our values and interests, just out of fear of reprisals from someone,” Mr Sanchez said in a televised address.
It is not clear how Mr Trump would cut off trade with Spain, a European Union member. The EU negotiates trade on behalf of all its 27 members.
