TL;DR Summary

Spain's Foreign Minister, Jose Manuel Albares, announced that Spain and Britain are "very close" to reaching a deal on the post-Brexit status of Gibraltar, following a meeting with his British counterpart, David Cameron, in Brussels. The details of the agreement were not disclosed, but discussions are underway regarding specific issues such as the use of the airport. The status of Gibraltar and the policing of its border with Spain have been contentious since the UK's decision to leave the EU in 2016. Spain had previously proposed a "balanced and generous agreement," and both sides are committed to reaching a UK-EU treaty on Gibraltar as soon as possible.
