ANDORRA AND EU TO NEGOTIATE BORDER CONTROL

ANDORRA AND EU TO NEGOTIATE BORDER CONTROL
The European Council has authorised the opening of negotiations with Andorra to manage the land borders of that territory with Spain and France.
This was not part of the Association Agreement concluded between them in December and the border issues are being dealt with separately.
