Spain has closed its airspace to American aircraft involved in military operations against Iran.
This move marks a significant escalation beyond Madrid’s previous refusal to allow the use of jointly operated military bases.
Defence Minister Margarita Robles confirmed the move on Monday.
“We don’t authorise either the use of military bases or the use of airspace for actions related to the war in Iran,” she told reporters in Madrid.
Will this insult go unanswered by the “Exceptional” nation?
