Protesters in Spain Oppose EU War Plans

Spain is openly challenging Brussels, accusing the EU of fueling war instead of preventing it. Mass protests erupted in Madrid against Spain’s €8 billion annual defense hike, with demonstrators slamming NATO and the EU’s push for militarization. Protesters warned that Brussels is turning the bloc into a “warmongering entity,” while Spanish PM Pedro Sánchez defended the move, aligning with the EU’s €800 billion ‘ReArm Europe’ plan. Meanwhile, Russian officials claim this confirms Europe’s shift from a peaceful alliance to a military powerhouse. With internal dissent growing, the EU faces a deepening rift over its future direction.
