Anger as Spanish Prime Minister says they 'cannot stop Israel alone' because they 'don't have nuclear bombs'

  Spain's socialist Prime Minister has sparked outrage after reportedly expressing regret over the country not having nuclear weapons to 'stop Israel'. 

PM Pedro Sanchez's remarks came on Monday as he announced an arms embargo on Israel to 'stop Gaza genocide'. 

Addressing journalists in a press conference, the politician said: 'Spain, as you know, doesn't have nuclear bombs, nor aircraft carriers, nor large oil reserves. 

'We alone can't stop the Israeli offensive. But that doesn't mean we won't stop trying, because there are causes that are worth fighting for.'

Several critics have rushed to social media to condemn Sanchez's comments. 

One X user commented: 'Thank God this crazed Megalomaniac is nowhere near a red button! Get him out of power and in to an asylum!'

Another said: 'Meanwhile, Israel does have nukes, so pipe down, Sanchez, you rotten demon.'

But others noted how the PM's comments may have been taken out of context.
