Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez visited the Campo de Gibraltar on May 10 to mark removal of the final border barrier within the European Union, according to local reporting.
Sánchez's statement reflected completion of negotiations over Gibraltar's status after nearly 300 years of dispute between Spain and Britain. This opening represents the last remaining hard border within EU territory.
The move follows post-Brexit negotiations that allowed Gibraltar closer alignment with Schengen travel rules while maintaining its British sovereignty. However, Socialist candidate María Jesús Montero faced criticism from regional opponents over the agreement's terms.
