Overview
- Spain’s second deputy prime minister and Sumar leader proposed hosting an international conference in Madrid to give Palestinians a central role in deciding their future.
- Díaz pressed the government to lead an alliance in defense of Palestinian rights, citing mass pro‑Palestinian demonstrations across Spain as evidence of public backing.
- She rejected the U.S.–Israel plan for Gaza on the grounds that it excludes Palestinian participation, as separate talks between Hamas, Israel and Washington continue.
- Her proposal includes cutting all relations with Israel, suspending the EU association agreement and imposing sanctions to escalate diplomatic pressure.
- Coalition sources told El Periódico the Palestinian National Authority would represent Palestinians at the proposed summit, and La Vanguardia notes the Congress will vote this week on a decree prohibiting arms exports to Israel.
