US President Donald Trump threatened to halt all trade with Spain after the country denied the US access to its military bases for operations in Iran. Trump criticized Spain for being 'terrible' and expressed frustration over its defense spending.

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez condemned US and Israeli actions in Iran, while Trump also criticized the UK for lack of cooperation. Teljes cikk (bbc.com europe)
