Congress approves arms embargo on Israel with the 'yes' of Podemos and the 'no' of PP and Vox

We can confirm that the embargo is a "fake" and call for a real arms blockade, but we vote yes. The decree has also been approved as an urgent bill, so it can be amended during the process.

The plenary of the Congress of Deputies approved on Wednesday the decree law authorizing the blocking of arms to Israel with the vote in favour of all the parties that supported the investiture of Pedro Sánchez. We can vote in favour and only the PP and Vox voted against.

Jone Belarra has defined the embargo as "fake" in her speech and called for a real arms blockade, but Podemos has decided to vote in favour.

People's Party and Vox voted against and UPN MP Alberto Catalán abstained.



In another vote, the Decree-Law was approved as a draft law by urgent procedure. In this case, all Members except the PP voted in favour. Consequently, changes may be made during the process.
