The British Ambassador to Spain, Sir Alex Ellis, met with the Spanish Government’s Subdelegate in Almería, José María Martín Fernández, at the Parador de Mojácar.
The Ambassador was accompanied by the British Vice-Consul in Málaga, Miriam Pérez Martín, and the British Honorary Consul in Almería and Director of Salvador Tax & Legal, Alejandro Guerrero Salvador. Senior officers from the Vera Company of the Guardia Civil also attended the meeting.
During the meeting, Sir Alex Ellis enquired about the situation of British citizens affected by the Bédar–Los Gallardos forest fire and conveyed the United Kingdom’s gratitude to the Spanish Government for the extensive deployment of resources in response to the emergency.
At Salvador Tax & Legal, we join the Ambassador in recognising the work of all the authorities, security forces and emergency services involved, and extend our support to everyone affected as the recovery and reconstruction phase begins.
