The Madrid Group, consisting of key European and Arab nations, convened in Spain for the fifth time to exert pressure on Israel regarding its ongoing military actions in Gaza. Spain has publicly called for an arms embargo on Israel and sanctions against individuals undermining a two-state solution. Other nations like the UK and Canada have also initiated measures against Israel, including trade discussions and sanctions. However, many question the tangible impact of these actions, suggesting they may be more symbolic than effective amid a lasting crisis for Palestinians.
Spain's push for an arms embargo on Israel reflects growing international concern over the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and aims to restore commitment to a two-state solution.
Despite increasing diplomatic pressure, skepticism remains about the effectiveness of these measures, as many see them as merely symbolic without real change on the ground for Palestinians.
