The decision follows Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez's pledge to enshrine in law a ban on arms trade with Israel over its offensive in Gaza. On Monday, he also urged Israel's exclusion from international sport.
That’s like the bare minimum anyone could do… It’s such a shame that a country as vocal as Spain is only doing it two years into the genocide. I have no hope for this world. I’d rather die once with my dignity together with all Palestinians, than keep dying everyday in this shit world.
From what I understand it wasn’t a contract with a Israeli company but a public contract awarded to consortium of Spanish companies which were supposed to buy some components from Israel. The government stopped ordering arms from Israel two years ago. Now they are taking it further.
It’s not a shame. Genocides typically get a lot larger, and the Palestinian genocide, while 75+ years in the making, hasn’t reached other enormous genocides yet.
64,000 killed directly, 325,000 indirectly. That means there is plenty of time to do something about it and why it’s good for any country to cancel their arms trade.

Out of a population of… correct me if I’m wrong, but I think 2.2 million?
5.6m I’m talking palestians period, not just Gaza or West Bank.
Ty for the info.
Appalling either way.
