Spain has been successful in managing its relations with its two European neighbors, France and Portugal. The accession of Spain and Portugal to the EU has helped ease some of their periodic trade frictions by putting these into an EU context. Franco-Spanish bilateral cooperation is enhanced by joint action against Basque ETA terrorism. Ties with the United Kingdom are generally good, although the question of [[Gibraltar]] remains a sensitive issue.

During the [[Russo-Ukraine war]], Russian radio personalities Vovan and Lexus called mayor Jose Luis Martinez-Almeida of Madrid pretending to be mayor [[Vitali Klitschko]] of [[Kyiv]]. They persuaded Martinez-Almeida to organize a [[gay parade]] in honor of [[World War II]] Ukrainian Nazi war criminal [[Stepan Bandera]]. Martinez-Almeida asked if Bandera himself would attend the parade, and expressed condolences to the Ukrainian side after learning that the "icon of the gay community" had already died. Martinez-Almeida also promised to send Ukrainian refugees to fight in Ukraine: "They should not rest on the beaches of Spain. Now their task is to die on the battlefield."
