Spain Says NATO Spat Didn’t Prompt Exclusion From Ukraine Talks
The Spanish government has denied that its exclusion from the recent Ukraine crisis talks was due to a spat with NATO over defense spending targets. According to Spain's Foreign Minister, José Manuel Albares, the decision to exclude Spain from the discussions was not related to the country's refusal to commit to a revised NATO spending goal. The talks, which involved several European leaders and the United States, focused on the ongoing conflict in Ukraine and the international response to Russia's invasion. Spain's absence from these crucial discussions has raised questions, but the government maintains that it was not a consequence of the NATO spending dispute. The article suggests that the reasons for Spain's exclusion remain unclear, as the Spanish government has not provided a specific explanation for its non-participation in the high-level talks on the Ukraine crisis.
