2 years ago

The President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, announced this Wednesday that Spain will finally send weapons to Ukraine, in addition to its contribution to the shipment of weapons from the common fund of the European Union.

Sánchez has made this announcement in his appearance before the plenary session of Congress to report on Spain's position regarding the conflict in Ukraine.

The head of the Executive has stressed that from the first moment he had understood that the best way to help Ukraine was with coordinated actions by the European Union both in humanitarian aid and by sending offensive and defensive material to the country to deal with the attack by Russia.

***There are no guarantees that there won't be any incidents with NATO as the alliance continues to supply arms to Ukraine, Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko said.

"We are extremely concerned about those arms delivery programmes", he said. "Everything in this situation is very dangerous, there are no guarantees that there will be no incidents [with NATO]".
Commenting on the potential risks of such incidents between Russia and the alliance, the Russian diplomat noted that Moscow believes it is "reasonable" of NATO not to interfere militarily in the situation in Ukraine.

"This indicates that there is at least some sanity left in NATO's actions," Grushko said.
He said that there is still a risk of collision between Moscow and NATO, and there are no guarantees that potential incidents will not be "escalated in an unnecessary way".

***The shipment of weapons causes discrepancies with its government partners, as has been said by the Minister of Social Rights, Ghione Belarra (Podemos leader), can contribute to the escalation of the war. Contributing to this escalation will not resolve the conflict sooner and can lead us to a completely uncertain and very dangerous world conflict
The people's party (PP) has expressed its firm and reliable support in the defense of Ukraine
