美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周三威胁要终止美国与西班牙的贸易，此前他批评这个北约盟友拒绝承诺达到联盟新的国防开支目标。
在北约峰会期间，特朗普多次点名批评西班牙，称该国是“浪费时间的事”，并敦促结束与这个美国欧洲盟友的贸易。
“西班牙就是个浪费时间的事，”特朗普说，“顺便说一句，我们再也不想和西班牙做任何贸易生意了。”

特朗普进一步说道：“请切断与西班牙的所有贸易，包括人员往来。”

最新民调：尽管特朗普多年来批评北约，大多数特朗普支持者仍支持北约
北约领导人此前批准了一项新的国防开支基准，呼吁盟友将国内生产总值的5%用于国防及国防相关开支。西班牙是北约联盟中唯一一个公开拒绝承诺达到完整目标的成员国，而是就其如何实现北约能力目标进行了灵活谈判。
特朗普辩称，西班牙一直在从北约联盟中获益，却未能贡献其应有的份额。
“他们不参与，不缴费。我不想和西班牙有任何瓜葛，”特朗普说。
他随后补充道：“我不想再和他们做任何贸易了。好吧？立刻执行。别跟他们谈了。”
特朗普还预测，西班牙最终会寻求恢复与美国的贸易关系。

特朗普与从意大利到以色列的盟友的个人恩怨揭示了性格如何左右他的外交政策
“他们对此态度敌对，我们就看看当他们打来电话说‘求求您，求求您，我们想和您做生意，先生’时，他们还会有多敌对，”特朗普说，“他们从我们这里赚了这么多钱，我们要让他们少赚很多。我不想和他们有任何生意往来。”
这些言论标志着特朗普长期以来对国防开支较低的北约盟友的批评升级。
在两届任期内，特朗普一直认为，未能达到联盟开支承诺的国家不公平地依赖美国为其提供安全保障。
然而，任何大幅限制与西班牙贸易的努力都可能面临法律和外交障碍。西班牙是欧盟成员国，欧盟作为关税同盟谈判贸易政策，而非与单个成员国签订双边贸易协定。
目前尚不清楚特朗普是在宣布一项正式政策，还是在表达他对西班牙在北约开支问题上立场的不满。白宫尚未立即透露政府是否正在考虑针对西班牙的贸易限制措施。

美国和西班牙保持着重要的贸易关系。
根据美国人口普查局的数据，2025年两国商品贸易额约为470亿美元，美国对西班牙出口约260亿美元商品，从西班牙进口约210亿美元。西班牙向美国出口药品、机械、化学品、食品和车辆，而美国向西班牙出口能源产品、机械、航空航天设备和化学品。

特朗普对西班牙的批评此前，华盛顿与西班牙首相佩德罗·桑切斯之间在国家安全和外交政策方面的摩擦已持续数月。
2026年初，桑切斯谴责美以针对伊朗的军事行动是“非同寻常的错误”，并呼吁缓和局势，同时西班牙拒绝允许美国使用联合运营的罗塔海军基地和莫隆空军基地，以支持“史诗之怒”行动中针对伊朗的进攻性行动。
西班牙官员辩称，这些打击缺乏国际法律依据，并表示这些基地不能用于单边军事行动。
Trump demands end to trade with key US ally, calls it a ‘wasted cause’

President Donald Trump called Spain a “wasted cause” at the NATO summit and said he wants the U.S. to end trade with the ally over its refusal to meet the alliance’s new defense spending target.

President Donald Trump threatened Wednesday to end U.S. trade with Spain after criticizing the NATO ally for refusing to commit to the alliance’s new defense spending target.
Speaking during the NATO summit, Trump repeatedly singled out Spain, calling the country a “wasted cause” and urging an end to trade with one of America’s European allies.
“Spain is a wasted cause,” Trump said. “We don’t want to do any trade business with Spain anymore, by the way.”

Trump went further, saying, “Cut off all trade with Spain, please, including visits.”

MOST TRUMP SUPPORTERS STILL BACK NATO DESPITE YEARS OF TRUMP’S CRITICISM, NEW POLL FINDS
The president’s comments came after NATO leaders backed a new defense spending benchmark calling on allies to invest 5% of gross domestic product in defense and defense-related expenditures. Spain was the lone member of the alliance to publicly reject committing to the full target, instead negotiating flexibility in how it will meet NATO capability goals.
Trump argued Spain has benefited from the alliance while failing to contribute its fair share.
“They don’t participate, they don’t pay. I don’t want anything to do with Spain,” Trump said.
He later added, “I don’t want to do any more trade with him. All right? Take it immediately. Don’t even talk to them.”
Trump also predicted Spain would eventually seek to restore trade ties with the United States.

TRUMP’S PERSONAL FEUDS WITH ALLIES FROM ITALY TO ISRAEL REVEAL HOW PERSONALITY DRIVES HIS FOREIGN POLICY
“They’re hostile about it, and let’s see how hostile they remain when they call up and they, ‘Please, please, we want to trade with you, sir,’” Trump said. “They make so much money with us, and we’re going to see that they make a lot less. I want no business with them.”
The remarks represent an escalation of Trump’s longstanding criticism of NATO allies that spend less on defense.
Throughout both of his administrations, Trump has argued that countries failing to meet alliance spending commitments unfairly rely on the United States for their security.
Any effort to significantly restrict trade with Spain, however, could present legal and diplomatic hurdles. Spain is a member of the European Union, which negotiates trade policy as a customs union rather than through separate bilateral trade agreements with individual member states.
It was not immediately clear whether Trump was announcing a formal policy or expressing his frustration with Spain’s position on NATO spending. The White House had not immediately provided details on whether the administration is considering trade restrictions targeting Spain.
Earlier in 2026, Sánchez condemned the U.S.-Israeli military campaign against Iran as an “extraordinary mistake” and called for de-escalation, while Spain refused to allow the U.S. to use the jointly operated Rota Naval Base and Morón Air Base to support offensive operations against Iran under Operation Epic Fury.(Mass Communication Specialist 1st Class Michael C.

The U.S. and Spain maintain a significant trading relationship.
The two countries traded roughly $47 billion in goods in 2025, with the United States exporting about $26 billion worth of goods to Spain and importing about $21 billion from Spain, according to U.S. Census Bureau data. Spain exports pharmaceuticals, machinery, chemicals, food products and vehicles to the U.S., while the United States exports energy products, machinery, aerospace equipment and chemicals to Spain.

Trump’s criticism of Spain also comes after months of growing friction between Washington and Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez over national security and foreign policy.
Earlier in 2026, Sánchez condemned the U.S.-Israeli military campaign against Iran as an “extraordinary mistake” and called for de-escalation, while Spain refused to allow the U.S. to use the jointly operated Rota Naval Base and Morón Air Base to support offensive operations against Iran under Operation Epic Fury.
Spanish officials argued the strikes lacked international legal backing and said the bases could not be used for unilateral military action.
