Albares asks to leave Spain "alone" during the election period in light of Trump's words and Milei's visit

Spanish Minister of Foreign Affairs, European Union and Cooperation José Manuel Albares has publicly requested that external actors refrain from interfering in Spanish domestic affairs during the current electoral period. This appeal follows recent remarks by Donald Trump and coincides with a visit to Spain by Argentine President Javier Milei. Albares emphasized the need for political stability and non-interference as the country navigates its electoral cycle.

In a related statement, Albares warned that a potential victory for the opposition parties, the Popular Party (PP) and Vox, could lead to the implementation of economic policies similar to those of President Milei. He specifically characterized these potential measures as a 'chainsaw' approach, suggesting that such a shift would negatively impact Spanish pensions and public services.
