I think your take is not well thought through. Spain is an independent nation, just like Israel. Spain has absolutely no jurisdiction over Israeli citizens or companies, and vice versa. If Spain and Israel haven't signed any agreement to cooperate in this subject, all Spain can do is ask nicely without expecting any response.
Being independent or legally bound to reply to a foreign government's requests is not tyranny.
- bjourne 3y agoBoth Spain and Israel are members of INTERPOL so they have indeed signed legally binding cooperation agreements.
- flanked-evergl 3y agoCould you cite the part of the agreement that Israel is not complying with?
- kergonath 3y agoThe agreement is here: https://www.europol.europa.eu/sites/default/files/documents/working_arrangement_establishing_cooperative_relations_between_the_law_enforcement_authorities_of_israel_and_the_european_union.pdf https://www.europol.europa.eu/sites/default/files/documents/... The document is quite long so I am not going to cite all of it, but the modes of cooperation are there (including meetings, requests and exchange of information). It does mention explicitly computer crimes as area where parties ought to cooperate.
