    The reality is more nuanced. Even fashgirl Giorgia Meloni (Italy) is rejecting US access to bases on Italian soil. I suppose the war is so unpopular that all who support it automatically fail domestically.

    On the other hand, I expect master magician Pedro Sánchez to reject US aggression and simultaneously buy American weapons which, inexplicably, will end up in Naziyahu’s hands.

    The Pedro has a lot of positive international reputation right now, but here on Lemmy we approach the world dialectically. That is, we don’t buy lib bullshit. Sánchez’s moves are super lib at the core. Do 1 lefty thing and 2 righty things.

      Right now, Giorgia Meloni has just lost a referendum and is facing trouble because one of her ministers has been linked to a former journalist who released interviews about their relationship. Consequently, she is seeking ways to regain approval from citizens, as her coalition has been bruised and polls indicate a tightening race against a unified opposition.

      Edit. Fixed some facts.

        Exactly. Losing the justice referendum, whose real objective was to modify the 1948 antifascist constitution, was Meloni’s 1st hard slap on her face.

        The fash are losing globally, at least in terms of public perception. Never held any legitimacy and now even less.

      Guess that explains the Spanish far right leadership’s reply as reported in the article.
