'No to war,' Spanish PM tells Trump

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez hit back on Wednesday at U.S. President Donald Trump's criticisms of Madrid's refusal to let U.S. planes use its bases to attack Iran.

"The position of the government of Spain can be summed up in four words: no to war," he said in a televised address, a day after Trump threatened to sever all trade with Spain.

"We will not be complicit in something that is harmful to the world and contrary to our values and interests, simply out of fear of retaliation."
