Spain closes airspace for US planes involved in Iran war
Spain has closed its airspace to US warplanes involved in the Iran conflict, reinforcing opposition to US and Israeli involvement in the Middle East. The move is the latest development in tensions between Spain and the US, with Spain's government denying the use of its military bases for the conflict.
Spain has closed its airspace to US planes involved in the Iran war. The country had already barred US base use in the conflict. Defence Minister Margarita Robles said the same logic applies to airspace use. Spain's government opposes US and Israeli military actions in the Middle East. The US had threatened to cut trade with Madrid after Spain denied base use. Spain's Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez has called for an end to the war in Iran.
