Vox leader Santiago Abascal delivered a strong message about the importance of defending national interests above any political or international agenda. In his remarks, Abascal declared that “Vox is the party of the Spaniards,” emphasizing that his movement does not take orders from any foreign entity or multinational corporation.
During his speech, Abascal expressed understanding toward other nationalist leaders around the world, such as Donald Trump, Giorgia Meloni, and Marine Le Pen, pointing out that all of them share a similar patriotic vision: putting the well-being of their own citizens first.
“We understand that Donald Trump wants to defend the citizens of the United States first, that Giorgia Meloni wants to defend Italians first, and that Marine Le Pen puts the French first,” Abascal stated, stressing that this defense of national interest does not mean isolation, but mutual respect among patriots.
The Vox leader explained that, although nationalist movements across countries share values and principles, this does not mean they agree on everything.
“Even among those of us who are patriots and understand one another, we will have our frictions, our clashes, and our differing interests,” he said.
Abascal emphasized his party’s political independence, making it clear that Vox is not subordinate to any international group or foreign economic interests.
“We are not part of any multinational that gives us orders. No one gives us orders — I don’t think Sánchez can say the same. I don’t think Feijóo can say the same,” he declared.
Finally, Abascal reaffirmed that Vox maintains respectful relations with its international allies, but always from a position of sovereignty.
“We have allies whom we respect and understand in the exercise of their politics, but we don’t necessarily share everything with them,” he concluded.
With these words, Santiago Abascal once again positioned Vox as a symbol of Spanish patriotism, emphasizing its ideological independence and commitment to defending national values against external pressures.
