The rapporteur of the Constitutional Court endorses the friendship treaty between France and Spain that the PP challenged.
The court will debate next week whether attendance at the Council of Ministers by a member of the French Government is constitutional, an aspect included in the agreement between the two countries.
The Constitutional Court's magistrate tasked with reviewing the friendship treaty between France and Spain, which the Senate questioned twice, does not foresee "any contradiction with the Spanish Constitution," El Español reported and EL PAÍS confirmed. Approved in April after the Congress had initially rejected the treaty, with the PP and Vox voting against it and Junts and Podemos abstaining, the Friendship and Cooperation Treaty between Spain and France foresees the possibility of people not strictly belonging to the Spanish Government to attend a pre-Council of Ministers meeting.
The court will debate magistrate Ricardo Enríquez's opinion on the treaty in the coming week, which likely will have the backing of the majority. French President Emmanuel Macron will meet with Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez in Madrid on September 30th, as officially announced.
