The Diplomat
The Israeli Foreign Minister, Israel Katz, mocked yesterday the result achieved by the PSOE and Sumar in the European elections on Sunday, arguing that his support for the terrorist group Hamas for having recognized Palestine has been punished by the voters.
“The Spaniards have punished the coalition of Pedro Sánchez and Yolanda Díaz with a resounding defeat in the elections,” Katz wrote in X, accompanying his message with an image generated by artificial intelligence in which the president of the Government and the vice president are seen. with heads stained with eggs.
“It turns out that embracing the murderers and rapists of Hamas does not pay off,” insisted Katz, who thus returns to the letter in his criticism of the Spanish Government after the recognition of the Palestinian State on May 28. The Foreign Minister tagged both the leader of the PP, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, and the leader of Vox, Santiago Abascal, in his message.
Katz had been very critical from the first moment of the recognition of Palestine, which he considered to be “a gold medal” for Hamas. His criticism intensified after Díaz’s statement maintaining that “Palestine would be free from the river to the sea”, demanding his dismissal and prohibiting the Spanish Consulate General in Jerusalem from providing services to the Palestinians from June 1.
The Minister of Foreign Affairs, José Manuel Albares, promised that there would be a joint response with Ireland, Norway and Slovenia to the “provocations” of his Israeli counterpart, although given that these seemed to have subsided over the past week, he clarified that For now, this “calm and firm” response would not occur for the moment so as not to provoke an escalation.
Bullrich: “You insulted the Argentine Government and lost”
From Argentina, the Minister of Security, Patricia Bullrich, also addressed Pedro Sánchez, to tell him that he “has lost Europe” after “insulting” the Argentine Government.
“Sánchez, you insulted our Government and you lost Europe…”, published on her social network account Bullrich, who in the last presidential elections was the conservative candidate for the Presidency and who, in the second round of the Presidential elections, supported Javier Milei in front of the Peronist Sergio Massa.
Milei, for his part, did not enter into the confrontation he maintains with Sánchez and limited himself to celebrating the “tremendous advance of the new right” in the European elections.
