PM says his country will not be complicit in growing conflict in Middle East ‘simply out of fear of reprisals from someone’

The Spanish prime minister, Pedro Sánchez, has responded to Donald Trump’s extraordinary threat to cut off all trade with Spain over his government’s refusal to facilitate the US’s ongoing attacks against Iran, comparing the growing conflict in the Middle East to playing “Russian roulette with the destiny of millions”.

Sánchez, who has been one of the most vociferous European critics of Israel’s conduct in Gaza, said his government’s position on the widening instability could be summed up in three words: “No to war.”

In a section of the speech that appeared to directly address Trump’s threats to end all trade with Spain, the prime minister said his country would “not be complicit in something that is bad for the world – and that is also contrary to our values ​​and interests – simply out of fear of reprisals from someone”.

The full article that was hinted at in interviews last week.

There are likely a few reasons behind this shift. One is that several recent PlayStation games have not sold well on PC.

Interesting...

But the strategy has been muddled and confused many players. Most PC releases arrived months or years after the games came to PlayStation. The cadence was never consistent, and the announcements appeared to be haphazard. The company also upset PC players by asking them to create PlayStation Network accounts to access many of the games.

I love Horizon: Zero Dawn. I have not played Horizon: Forbidden West. By the time it came to PC, Sony started making PSN logins necessary to even authenticate the game in the first place, which is basically just the worst kind of DRM. They've reverted this policy, but now I don't trust them. They put out a handful of games on GOG where I don't have to trust them, and I'll probably still pick a few of those up one day, but Forbidden West isn't there. Seems to me that they have no idea how badly they screwed up this rollout themselves. Oh, Uncharted 4 didn't do too well on PC? Where are the PC versions of Uncharted 1-3? Where can I play the original God of War trilogy? I'm not buying a PlayStation no matter how many exclusives you lock up there, so I'll just continue to not play your handful of exclusives.

Anyway, that's my two cents.
