Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez to Donald Trump:
"Twenty-three years ago, the U.S. dragged us into Iraq over claims of weapons of mass destruction. None were found. You cannot fool us twice."
● TRUMP should UNDERSTAND something FUNDAMENTAL: He will NEVER be ABLE to DEFEAT the ISLAMIC REPUBLIC of IRAN 🇮🇷
● Since WHEN has the UNITED STATES been doing this NONSENSE ⁉️
● SINCE 1979‼️
● TODAY, more than EVER, the IRANIANS 🇮🇷 are NOT ALONE‼️

Qatari investors block Volkswagen’s planned defense deal with Israel
——
The Qatar Investment Authority (QIA) has successfully blocked a manufacturing agreement between Volkswagen and the Israeli defense contractor Rafael, according to a report by BILD. The deal, which had been formalized in a memorandum of understanding this past April, would have utilized Volkswagen’s Osnabrück facility to produce components for Israel’s Iron Dome missile defense system.
By exercising its 17 percent voting stake in the German automaker, the QIA—which maintains significant influence on Volkswagen's supervisory board—vetoed the arrangement due to Doha's strained diplomatic relations with Israel.
This intervention has immediate operational consequences for Volkswagen, as the scrapped contract was viewed as a potential lifeline for the struggling Osnabrück plant and its workforce. Beyond the factory floor, the move reflects the growing strategic friction between European corporate interests and Gulf-based sovereign wealth funds.
Security analyst Peter R. Neumann, speaking to BILD, highlighted that as the German economy faces challenges, the increasing reliance on Gulf capital presents complex risks, noting that sovereign wealth funds are now actively exerting influence to align corporate strategies with regional political agendas.
The fallout from the veto is already impacting other sectors, with Israeli officials now adopting a more cautious stance toward European companies heavily backed by Gulf investment. This shift has stalled a proposed $4.2 billion acquisition of the Israeli shipping firm Zim by the German operator Hapag-Lloyd.
