Pedro Sanchez calls for Israel not to participate in any sporting competition "for as long as the barbarity lasts"
At the meeting of the Interparliamentary Committee in the Congress of Deputies, in the presence of the Socialist Members, Senators and MEPs, Sanchez expressed his unease at the way in which Russia was expelled after the invasion of Ukraine, because the same is not done now with Israel.
The President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, on Monday called for Israel not to be able to participate in international sporting competitions "for as long as the barbarity continues" in Gaza.
At the meeting of the Interparliamentary Committee in the Congress of Deputies, in the presence of the Socialist Members, Senators and MEPs, Sanchez expressed his unease at the way in which Russia was expelled after the invasion of Urraina, because the same is not done now with Israel.
"Our position is clear and firm, until the end of the barbarism, neither Russia nor Israel should take part in any more international competitions," he said in Madrid, the day after the riots in the last stage of the Return to Spain, which forced the end of the Return to Spain to be suspended on Sunday and in which two detainees and about 20 policemen were injured during the protests along the way.
Sanchez has always rejected violence, but has stressed that, after what happened on Sunday in the capital, he feels "deep admiration and respect" for Spanish civil society that "mobilizes against injustice" and defends its ideas "peacefully."
Sanchez's stance on Monday comes in full with what he said last May on the occasion of the Eurovision Festival, in which he defended the exclusion of Israel from the music competition, as was done with Russia, as well as other similar events.
