Press Stunned by Trump’s Brutally Honest Answer About Iran Deal Collapse
What was said
"I didn't speak to Spain. Spain is a wasted cause. We don't want to do any trade business with Spain anymore, by the way. I'd like you to cut it off. Spain is a terrible partner in NATO. They don't participate. They don't pay. I don't want anything to do with Spain. Cut off all trade with Spain, please, including visits."
Speaking from Turkey during the NATO meeting, Trump announced he is ordering a complete cessation of trade with Spain, including visits, because Spain refused to allow the US to use Spanish bases during the Iran conflict despite being a NATO ally. Trump directed Secretary of Commerce Scott Bessent to implement the order immediately.
