Spanish foreign policy monitor: October-December 2013

In the last quarter of 2013, Spanish foreign policy was marked by five main issues:

- the latest disagreement with Gibraltar;

- the cases of massive espionage by the United States National Security Agency;

- the change of format of the Ibero-American Summits;

- the difficult balance between commercial expansion and foreign policy;

- and the so-called ‘Catalan’ question, which has gone from being a national problem to an international one for the Spanish government.
