Eurovision: Spanish PM Pedro Sánchez calls for Israel to be banned
Pedro Sánchez noted Russia has been banned from the contest since 2022 following its invasion of Ukraine, and said there should not be "double standards".
Also them spending money to get votes so they can say 'the people stand with them'. This government doesn't deserve a stage. Not any.

Tbh yes but I think as long as EU countries still send then weapons it feels like a hollow gesture that distracts from the real issues. Russia is being sanctioned and has generally been disconnected from the rest of Europe in many ways, meanwhile Israel can just genocide palestine and get some stern words.
It's sad, but sadly not actually inconsistent with general foreign policy.
