JUST IN: 🇪🇸🇺🇸Spain has asked the US to leave its bases, insisting the US Cannot use its bases to attack Iran
The Spanish government on Monday denied allowing the U.S. to use its military bases for attacks on Iran, saying the facilities must “operate within the framework of international law.”
Defense Minister Margarita Robles said during a press conference at the Armilla Air Base that “no assistance of any kind, absolutely none,” had been provided from the Rota and Morón bases in southern Spain.
“There is a deal with the U.S. over these bases, but our understanding of the deal is that operations have to comply with international legal frameworks and that there has to be international support for them,” Robles said. The U.S. and Israel were acting “unilaterally without the support of an international resolution,” she added.
