Many countries have determined their role and position regarding the Russian-Ukrainian war. Spain and Portugal condemned Russian aggression in February 2022, expressed their support and solidarity with Ukraine, and supported all UN resolutions. The Kingdom of Spain and Portugal strongly supported granting Ukraine candidate status for EU membership. Portugal is one of the countries that recognized the Holodomor as genocide and voted for the North Atlantic Council to recognize Ukraine as a member of NATO’s Enhanced Opportunities Program. These countries are important international actors in supporting Ukraine on the global stage and in combating Russian propaganda and efforts to discredit Ukraine internationally.enUkraineSpainPortugalthe Russian-Ukrainian warSpain's Foreign Action Strategy for 2021-2024Spain’s foreign policythe European Peace Facility (EPF)the Granada Declarationthe Ukrainian diaspora in Portugalanti-Ukrainian propaganda in PortugalRussian propaganda in Spaininternational relationsBook chapterhttps://orcid.org/0000-0001-7352-5316
