MADRID May 24. 2024 (Saba) - Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares announced on Friday that his country will protest to the authorities of the Zionist enemy against its decision to prevent its consulate in Jerusalem from serving Palestinians in the West Bank.
Albares said in local media that the Spanish government would analyze the ban "and whether the decision will be implemented literally" and then lodge its protest.
For his part, the High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Josep Borrell, criticized the decision of the enemy authorities to prevent the Spanish consulate in Jerusalem from providing services to the Palestinians, describing the decision as "bad news."
Borrell said in an interview with Spanish state television today after the Zionist enemy announced its decision to prevent that it comes "in response to Spain's decision to recognize the State of Palestine starting from May 28."
This diplomatic tension comes two days after the decision of the Zionist entity to withdraw its ambassador to Spain in response to the announcement by Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez last Wednesday of Madrid's intention to recognize the state of Palestine on May 28, coinciding with the announcement of other European countries.
