Starmer and Spanish PM Both Condemn ‘Terrible’ Situation in Gaza as They Meet
The UK and Spain's agreement follows a summer deal to remove Gibraltar border checks and focuses on boosting economic growth and managing migration, officials said.
- On Wednesday at Downing Street, Sir Keir Starmer and Pedro Sánchez signed a bilateral agreement to strengthen co-operation on economic growth, migration and shared interests in the first such meeting in seven years.
- The Gibraltar settlement, agreed with the European Union , resolved border checks and paved the way for the bilateral agreement between Sir Keir Starmer and Pedro Sánchez.
- Both leaders condemned the situation in Gaza and Sánchez said Europe’s response was `a failure`, agreeing to discuss Gaza, Ukraine and trade ties during their talks.

- The wider context, Sánchez said, presents an opportunity for European and UK leadership as he warned the US under President Donald Trump is weakening the post-World War II international order and withdrawing from major institutions.
