it is a matter -he added- of consolidating them and moving forward in what we have been betting on from the beginning: implementing the two-State solution to allow a realistic and viable Palestinian State that can coexist and live with Israel, guaranteeing prosperity\", he added.\n\nIn that solution, the Spanish Government intends to continue to insist, after it was at the forefront of the last wave of countries that have recognized Palestine as a State.\n\nBut the celebration of peace detached it from the continuity of the investigations for genocide against the Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, because, he specified, \"the responsibilities are there and that is not going to change\".\n\n\"There is a case before the International Court of Justice, precisely based on the Convention for the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, and there is also an investigation by the International Criminal Court,\" he recalled.\n\nThey added that the Spanish Prosecutor's Office has opened an investigation into the matter.\n\nPraise for the United States<br>But, after that reminder, he insisted that the important thing about this day is the hope that brought together leaders from all over the world in Sharm el-Sheikh to achieve definitive peace.\n\nAlbares praised the work of the United States, Egypt, Qatar and Turkey to achieve peace and guaranteed that Spain will continue to contribute to all efforts for the total solution of the crisis in the Middle East.\n\nA solution in which Spain flatly rejected that Hamas could have a role in the future governance of a Palestinian state.\n\nIn the framework of the summit, S\u00e1nchez, according to the Egyptian government, participated in a leaders' meeting in which President Al Sisi asked European leaders to support Egypt and Jordan in the training of Palestinian police to ensure security in Gaza.\n\nIn that meeting were present the King of Jordan, Abdullah II; the presidents of France and Turkey, Emmanuel Macron and Recep Tayyip Erdogan; the Emir of Qatar, Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani; the German Chancellor, Friedrich Merz; the Prime Minister of Italy, Giorgia Meloni; the one from the United Kingdom, Keir Starmer, and the one from Canada, Mark Carney, as well as the Saudi Foreign Minister, Faisal bin Farhan.\n\nThe peace signing ceremony fostered a cordial greeting and smiles between S\u00e1nchez and the President of the United States four days after Trump suggested Spain's withdrawal from NATO due to what he considers a lack of commitment to defense spending within the Alliance.\n\nPosition before which the Government assured that it is very calm, because Spain is a full member and committed to NATO and meets its capacity objectives as well as the United States.\n\nTherefore, before the greeting between S\u00e1nchez and Trump, Albares had already assured that he did not expect a bad gesture from the American president, because what happened this Monday in Egypt was a summit for peace and hope in the Middle East.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Spanish Prime Minister, Pedro S\u00e1nchez, participated this Monday in the signing ceremony of the peace plan for Gaza with the commitment that Spain is determined to contribute to the steps that must be taken from now on to achieve definitive peace in the Middle East.
