Anglo-Spanish Summit

HC Deb 15 April 1999 vol 329 cc305-6W

Mr. Winnick

To ask the Prime Minister if he will make a statement on the Anglo-Spanish Summit on 10 and 11 April. [81160]

The Prime Minister

The summit was the first of its kind. It marked the recent step-change in Britain's bilateral relationship with Spain. The two Prime Ministers discussed the way forward in Europe. They underlined their interest in developing a competitive, prosperous Europe, and agreed a joint declaration on Employment and Economic reform and that a working group would take forward work in this area. Kosovo was inevitably discussed at length. The two Prime Ministers reiterated their shared support for continued military activity until Milosovic complied unreservedly to the five conditions set by NATO.
