El Rey Felipe VI clausura la X Conferencia de Embajadores de España

Ministerio de Asuntos Exteriores, Unión Europea y Cooperación. Madrid, 09.01.2026

Buenos días. Me alegra mucho veros y poder trasladaros nuestros mejores deseos -de la Reina y míos- por el Año que comienza. Esta conferencia anual es una valiosa ocasión para el encuentro entre compañeros –embajadoras y embajadores de España− y el intercambio de opiniones e información en un tiempo crucial.

Tenía previsto exponeros, en mi intervención, los principales ejes de la agenda exterior de la Jefatura de Estado en 2025, que han sido −no podía ser de otra manera− los de nuestra política exterior: la defensa del multilateralismo y de un Orden Internacional basado en normas; más Europa; la promoción de la Seguridad y la Defensa (propia y colectiva); la importancia del vínculo transatlántico (más allá de coyunturas); nuestra hermandad con Iberoamérica, y nuestro ser Mediterráneo; el cuidado de las Relaciones Bilaterales, en particular con los países de nuestro entorno; la cooperación internacional al desarrollo o la promoción de la lengua española, por citar solo algunos.

De todo ello me ocuparé más adelante, pero algunos acontecimientos de los últimos días me llevan a querer compartir con vosotros unas reflexiones sobre Venezuela. Quiero subrayar dos ideas fundamentales:

    An international media association has denounced the Israeli government’s continued refusal to lift its ban on unrestricted media access to Gaza, despite the ceasefire in the embattled enclave.

    The Foreign Press Association (FPA) issued a statement on Tuesday expressing its “profound disappointment” with the government, which had told the Supreme Court two days earlier that the ban should be maintained due to “security reasons”.

    US CPB votes itself out of existence (AP)

    Updated 9:36 PM CET, January 5, 2026

    Leaders of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, a private agency that has steered federal funding to PBS, NPR and hundreds of public television and radio stations across the country, voted Monday to dissolve the organization that was created in 1967.

    CPB had been winding down since Congress acted last summer to defund its operations at the encouragement of President Donald Trump. Its board of directors chose Monday to shutter CPB completely instead of keeping it in existence as a shell.

    “CPB’s final act would be to protect the integrity of the public media system and the democratic values by dissolving, rather than allowing the organization to remain defunded and vulnerable to additional attacks,” said Patricia Harrison, the organization’s president and CEO.

    This was the home of The News Hour, Sesame Street, Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood, Schoolhouse Rock, Nova, Nature, Austin City Limits, The Joy of Painting (with Bob Ross), Ken Burns’ The Civil War, American Experience, and William F. Buckley’s Firing Line (which aired continuously for 33 years), to name just a few of the legendary programs we all enjoyed on PBS. That some Americans are actually celebrating this incalculable loss would have been unthinkable in the time before Trump. This is an irreparable act of devastating cultural vandalism motivated entirely by political cruelty. But this is an old story. Such things are sadly all too common with the rise of totalitarian fascism.
