Gibraltar Advances EU Deal, But Treaty Remains Unfinished
The Rock’s government has approved a draft text but key elements of the future relationship with the EU remain undefined.

The Rock’s government has approved a draft text but key elements of the future relationship with the EU remain undefined.
Conflicting statements from ministers, media and MPs have left the public unclear over a Gibraltar border deal that could see EU agents stationed on British soil.
Chief minister Fabian Picardo says talks are in their final stages, potentially tying the Rock closer to the EU than to post-Brexit Britain.

It seems the government of Gibraltar acted irresponsibly by failing to ask for help from Spain in order to respond to an incident of such magnitude.

Often referred to as “the most vaccinated place on earth,” the British-owned territory, which is situated on the southernmost tip of the Iberian peninsula, has witnessed the number of COVID-19 cases consistently rise throughout the fall months, leaving many questioning the vaccine’s efficacy in preventing SARS-CoV-2 transmission.

A natural fortress in a perfect location, Gibraltar—or “the Rock”—is a priceless strategic asset. Its fate after Brexit put it in the middle of an intense struggle.
