Spanish EU Minister: It is necessary to prevent the growth of “eurosceptic contamination”

El Mundo reports that Spain has called on conservatives and socialists in the European Parliament to form a large coalition. Spanish EU Minister Diego López Garrido said “more than ever a large coalition is necessary”, to prevent the growth of “eurosceptic contamination”. He indicated that this would be a priority for the Spanish Presidency of the EU, as well as implementing the Lisbon Treaty, assuming the Irish vote ‘Yes’ in the second referendum, as polls indicate. Garrido said Lisbon is an “urgent” matter to counteract the “erosion” the EU has suffered since the failure of the European Constitution.
