Spain’s Leader Calls US Levies ‘Doubly Unfair’ in Trade Spat

Trump Threatens to Make Spain Pay Double in Trade Deal

Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez defended his decision to break with his NATO allies over increases in military spending and called President Donald Trump’s tariffs on Spain “doubly unfair.”

“Europe and the world have been suffering from a trade war, from tariff measures that we have considered — at least in Spain — from the first minute as unfair and also unilateral,” Sanchez told reporters in Brussels Thursday. “In the case of Spain, they’re doubly unfair.”
