Spanish Transport Minister Oscar Puente has sparked controversy by condemning King Felipe VI for taking a photo with journalist Javier Negre, whom Puente describes as an "ultra-right activist". Puente called the monarch's actions "absolute ignominy" and accused Negre of being a "professional of defamation and fake news".
