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.
His Excellency the Governor, Sir James Dutton, last week visited Gibraltar’s Army Cadet Unit at the Buffadero Training Camp.
His Excellency was welcomed by Lt Col Ivor Lopez (CO RG) and Capt Alan Montegriffo before being given a tour of various cadet activities, including radio communications, expedition planning, weapon handling and ‘Fire Orders.’
Commenting on the Government’s insistence that European Commission take action following their 6-month deadline for both Spain and Gibraltar to implement new Customs controls based on their commendations, UK Europe Minister David Lidington has praised the Gibraltar Government.
