On Wednesday, the head of the Spanish Government, Pedro Sánchez, stood before the President of the Palestinian National Authority, Mahmoud Abbas, for real peace in Gaza, 'not cardboard stone', and assured him that sooner or later those responsible for the 'genocide' in the Strip will be held accountable.

Sanchez has made these considerations during his joint appearance with Abbas at the Moncloa Palace, the Palestinian president's second visit to Spain since the government decided to recognize Palestine as a state.

Having ensured that 2025 has been a terrible year for the Palestinian people, Sanchez has assured us that, although it may take time, all the remains of Gaza will be removed and this territory rebuilt.

The Spanish President believes that peace can come hand in hand with coexistence, with the two-state solution, and reiterates Spain's commitment to making this possible.

Abbas has appreciated Spain's commitment and its "courageous" attitude to the situation in Palestine and its "historic" decision to accept it as a state.

He also highlighted Sanchez's leadership in the recognition of Palestine by other countries, and explained that the meeting between the two discussed, among other things, the importance of the full implementation of US President Donald Trump's peace plan.

It has also advocated the smooth arrival of humanitarian aid from Gaza and the withdrawal of Israeli forces from the Strip and the opening of reconstruction.

It has also called for an end to violence in the West Bank and for no further settlements of Israelis and the release of Palestinian tax funds blocked "for no reason whatsoever".

Abbas believes that the solution must also go down the path of two states, with a Palestine bordering 1967.
