"We have reached the peak" of the pandemic, says Spain's PM․ #CNN
1270 Thursday, 09 April, 2020, 16:25 Spain will soon start the process of de-escalation of the current lockdown measures in place to mitigate the novel coronavirus pandemic in the country, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said today, as he asked Parliament to approve his request to extend the country’s state of emergency until April 26. “We have reached the peak and now the de-escalation begins,” Sanchez told a nearly empty Spanish Parliament Thursday, as most lawmakers are working from home. He cautioned however, that return to normal life would be “gradual”, in line with the severity of the current health crisis. “The climb has been difficult, as the descent will also be.” The head of the Spanish government went on to say that “Europe cannot afford to look the other way,” when it comes to the novel coronavirus and called on MPs to unite and advocate for a united European response to the crisis. “The European Union is in danger if there is no solidarity against the virus.” |
