Even though the painful inflation of the past two years has soured many people’s view of the economy, millions have remained willing to splurge on vacations, concert tickets and sports events.“This is just a very resilient economy that continues to take hit after hit and keep on,” said Joseph Brusuelas, chief economist at RSM, a tax and consulting firm.Yet the robust gro...

Spain’s Sánchez demands Israeli-Palestinian peace summit

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:31:16 GMT

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez on Thursday called for an international peace summit to find a long-term solution to the Israel-Hamas crisis.“It’s important that we have on the horizon a peace summit where we can channel the engagement of the international community to reach a final agreement, a peace agreement between Israel and Palestine with the two-state solution,” Sánchez said on arrival at the European Council summit in Brussels.Sánchez has been notably vocal in calling for a cease-fire in Gaza to allow humanitarian aid to enter the Palestinian-controlled territory, in contrast to other EU leaders who have shied away from that demand. Israel continues to retaliate for a violent attack by Hamas militants earlier this month which killed more than 1,400 Israelis. “As prime minister of Spain, I would like to see a cease-fire for humanitarian purposes,” Sánchez said. “But if we don’t have that condition, at least a humanitarian pause in order to channel all the human...
