Spain has agreed to join the PURL project to purchase American weapons for Ukraine, Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez said in response to renewed criticism from US President Donald Trump over Spain’s unwillingness to increase military spending.
“We are a reliable country,” Sanchez said upon arrival at the European Council, where he also confirmed that Spain would purchase weapons from the US for Ukraine, El Pais reported on Thursday.
According to the publication, the country will participate in the US arms supply program (PURL), but the exact amount that Madrid is willing to spend has not yet been determined.
