Israel calls for Spain crisis to be resolved ‘quickly and peacefully’

Israel’s Foreign Ministry calls for the ongoing crisis in Spain to be resolved “quickly and peacefully,” in its first comments on Catalonia’s bid for independence.

In two tweets, the Ministry appears to side with Spain, saying the two countries “share longstanding, strong and friendly relations, rooted in our common historical heritage and shared democratic values.”

“Israel hopes that the internal crisis in Spain will be resolved quickly and peacefully and through broad national consensus,” the statement says.
