The below is attributable to Spokesperson Matthew Miller:
Secretary of State Antony Blinken met today with Spanish Minister of Foreign Affairs José Manuel Albares.  The Secretary and the Foreign Minister underscored unwavering transatlantic support for Ukraine as it defends against Russia’s brutal and unprovoked war, and shared their concerns about PRC and third-country support to the Russian defense industrial base.  They called for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza as part of a hostage deal and stressed the value of working with regional leaders to ensure Palestinian civilians’ safe access to humanitarian assistance as well as the need to prevent further escalation in the Middle East.  They discussed cooperation to assist Haiti through the Multinational Security Support mission and their shared concern for instability in the Sahel.  Secretary Blinken and Foreign Minister Albares discussed preparations for the July 9-11 NATO Washington Summit and our crucial relationship as NATO Allies.  They also discussed ever-increasing U.S.-Spanish collaboration in Latin America, shared priorities on investment, migration, and democracy, and issues related to the Indo-Pacific, including the importance of maintaining peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait and in the South China Sea.
