On 5 March 2015 the European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker met in Madrid with the President of France François Hollande, the Prime Minister of Spain Mariano Rajoy and the Prime Minister of Portugal Pedro Passos Coelho to agree on ways to strengthen the connections of the Iberian Peninsula with the rest of the EU energy market. The Commissioner for Climate Action and Energy Miguel Arias Cañete and the President of the European Investment Bank Werner Hoyer also attended the meeting. Building missing cross-border links is a priority for the Juncker Commission. The leaders agreed to set up a High Level Group to step up the efforts to develop energy interconnections in South-West Europe and ensure that all the present and planned project are implemented in time. |
