European Commission Executive Vice-President Maroš Šefčovič, Spanish Minister for Foreign Affairs, European Union and Cooperation José Manuel Albares and UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy, together with the Chief Minister of Gibraltar Fabian Picardo, met in Brussels earlier today.
Picked up by a variation of major international news publications today and yesterday, Sunday’s most recent incursion into BGTW by Spanish Survey vessel ‘Angeles Alvarino’ has been highly condemned by both the UK and Gibraltar Governments.
The results of an opinion poll conducted by the Gibraltar Chronicle show that, if an election were held today, the GSLP-Liberals would once again be elected into office but this time with a 20% lead over the GSD Opposition. Without taking into account undecided voters, the GSLP-Libs received 60% of the vote with the GSD taking 40%.
An incident yesterday afternoon involving the Spanish state research vessel Ángeles Alvariño is being treated as a “serious incursion” by the Foreign Office.
