Trump targets Spain again: “A country that cannot control its borders”

Donald Trump has again taken aim at Spain, declaring that the NATO member is “a country that cannot control its borders.” The U.S. president made the remark on Truth Social while commenting on events linked to the irregular migration crisis.

“

A country that cannot control its borders. Wow.

Trump’s criticism also focused on Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez and his cabinet. The article links his attack to Spain’s opposition to Israel and its refusal to provide military support to U.S. forces in the Iran war. Trump said the situation in Spain was “very sad” and added, “Wow.”

Sanchez has rejected claims that Morocco was responsible for the recent migration crisis. He also said Spain would never give up its sovereign rights over Ceuta and Melilla, the Spanish territories on Morocco’s northern coast.

The events in Spain are very sad.

The Spanish prime minister has warned that complete security cannot be guaranteed along the borders of Ceuta and Melilla. “We cannot guarantee 100% security at those borders because inequality and the search for opportunities lie on the other side,” Sanchez said. “No matter how high the border is, that reality will always exist.” He has also alleged that Israel, Russia and far-right groups helped spread disinformation about the arrival of irregular migrants.
