00:00The UK and Spain share an important historic relationship.
00:18We cooperate on a range of issues, and particularly at this time, with a new government determined
00:27to have a reset with Europe, it is very important for us to be partnering and to be engaging
00:35with Spain at this moment.
00:39On central issues of security, with war in Europe particularly, having just come back
00:46from Ukraine, I'm looking forward to discussing these issues today, particularly as we head
00:53to the UN General Assembly.
00:56But also there's more that we can do together between Spain and the UK, particularly I think
01:03on climate and energy as we discuss needs going forward.
01:08And of course we hope to achieve prosperity and security for the people of Gibraltar with
01:16a new treaty cementing our relationship also with Spain and the European Union.
01:23Spain and the United Kingdom, we have a very strong bilateral relationship.
01:28It's half a million Spaniards living here in the UK and as many Britons living in Spain.
01:35We are among the main investors in each other's countries and have very strong connectivity.
01:41So we want to structure this political relation in benefit of our people.
01:48We are very happy to see that the United Kingdom wants to reset the relationship with
01:55the European Union.
01:57Having the largest Briton community in any European country, we think that it's in the
02:03benefits of everybody that the United Kingdom get as close as possible to the European Union.
