The Government of Spain recalls that it is already actively participating in the International Coalition against DAESH in Iraq. It also maintains a defensive presence in Turkey under the mandate of NATO. These operations received widespread support from the political forces as a whole represented in Parliament.
Spain has also maintained extensive collaboration with France for many years on the issue of the fight against terrorism, as well as heightened bilateral contact related to our joint military mission.
The government finally wishes to point out that the commitment expressed by the President of the Government to the different Spanish political groups to inform them of the development of the situation in the fight against Jihadi terrorism as relevant, remains in effect.
