Subdirector General for EU Trade Policy Nicolas Lopez and
Subdirector General for Coordination and Bilateral EU
Relations Javier Parra Rodriguez (both with the Ministry of
Industry, Tourism, and Trade) confirmed to EconOff on 1/12/05
that Spain intends to keep its Friendship, Commerce, and
Navigation (FCN) treaty with the U.S. Parra noted that the
FCN treaty is substantively heavily weighted towards consular
and navigation matters that are worth keeping in this
bilateral instrument.
