• Andorra Maduro refuses the Ibero-American summit and will be replaced by Delcy Rodríguez

The President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, and the 'Cap de Govern' of Andorra,

Xavier Espot

, have held a bilateral meeting today within the framework of the Ibero-American Summit held in this country, in which they have agreed to institutionalize an annual meeting of the respective finance ministers to

"harmonize" the fiscal situation.

Moncloa has not offered even more data on what this harmonization would consist of, beyond noting that the

"cooperation" of Spain and Andorra "in tax matters"

has been addressed

. Until 2010, Andorra was considered a tax haven by the EU and is a recurring destination for Spaniards who want to pay less taxes. It was recently known that famous 'youtubers' such as 'El Rubius' and others have taken up residence in this country. Compared to the 47% of personal income tax established in Spain for those who earn more than 300,000 euros,

in Andorra 10% is paid.

At the meeting, the neighboring country has asked Spain for help to advance in the negotiations that allow it to

reach an association agreement with the EU

, a commitment that the chief executive has acquired, according to information provided by the Spanish government.

Sánchez and Espot have also addressed the issue of vaccine distribution, one of the central issues of the summit of Heads of State and Government this afternoon and have agreed on the need to

"initiate the debate on patents and the scalability of production "

. The Spanish president has expressed in the meeting his "solidarity" with Latin America, where 30% of world deaths are registered, after yesterday the president of Guatemala, the Dominican Republic and Costa Rica, considered that the Initiative WHO's Covax for vaccine donation, which has the EU as the main contributor, has been a failure.

The Chief Executive has held another meeting with the Secretary General of the Ibero-American Summit,

Rebeca Grynspan

, in which both have described the appointment in Andorra as "successful" due to the consensus reached in the Final Declaration, which will include issues such as universal access to vaccines and that international financing be provided to Latin American economies under favorable conditions.
