Gibraltar Chronicle - The Independent Daily First Published 1801: "Mayor of La Linea Alejandro Sanchez has declared that he will be driving a hard bargain for the sale to AENA of the municipal grounds adjacent to the frontier, on which Spain’s national airport authority intends to build an access to Gibraltar’s air terminal.
This is one of the still outstanding measures agreed in 2006 under the Cordoba Agreement. The opening of the Cervantes Institute in Gibraltar is the other, as yet, unfulfilled commitment by Spain.
Speaking about the plot of land, Sr Sanchez said this was “one of the city’s most valuable assets,” and that he would defend “that we obtain everything that we want for selling it, to the last cent of an euro.”
The Mayor said that they had three potential business projects on the cards that would be compatible with the Air Terminal access infrastructure.
Blowing hot and cold once more, Sr Sanchez declared that he would be supporting the agreement noting that this was despite the fact that “La Linea had not been consulted or asked about it at any stage.”
He said the Ayuntamiento would be creating a local negotiating commission to give effect to the agreement he describes as “an administrative concession” and therefore allow the implementation of an international accord."
