Spain's foreign minister to stand for European elections | The Guardian Nigeria News - Nigeria and World News

In this file photo taken on June 8, 2018 Spanish Foreign Minister Josep Borrell smiles as he arrives to a cabinet meeting at La Moncloa palace in Madrid. – Borrell, who was once president of the European parliament, will stand for European elections in May, his Socialist party said on February 26, 2019.

The 71-year-old veteran Catalan politician, who is staunchly pro-EU and fiercely critical of his region’s independence movement, will head up the Socialists’ list for the May 26 polls, a party spokeswoman said. But Sanchez has been forced to call early general elections on April 28 after his minority government failed to get the necessary parliamentary support for his 2019 budget.

Outspoken, Borrell has been very vocal abroad in refuting Catalan separatists’ claims that Spain lacks political freedoms as 12 pro-independence leaders are on trial over their role in a 2017 secession attempt.
