Spain has received more than 200 thousand Ukrainians since the beginning of the full-scale invasion of Russia, Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said.
“Spain has more than 200 thousand refugees who came from Ukraine, although we are at a great distance,” he said at the NATO Public Forum in Washington, where the NATO summit is taking place.
According to the prime minister, most Spaniards support the government’s efforts in Ukraine “because we understand what is at stake.”
“It is not only the defense of the territorial integrity, freedom, and the right to existence of a nation, but also respect for a world ruled by clear principles,” he said.
