BarcelonaThe PP has warned Pedro Sánchez this Friday that "he cannot endanger the lives" of Spanish soldiers without the authorization of Congress, and therefore demands that he submit to the lower house the sending of military aid to Cyprus.

PP sources make this request after the executive has sent the frigate Cristóbal Colón, "the most advanced warship" of the Navy, to provide protection and air defense to Cyprus, a country that suffered an attack as a consequence of the war in Iran.
