Rajoy: “The forces of euroskepticism are lying in wait to destroy the project”

Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy on Friday brought to a close a series of conferences on the future of Europe organized by the Berggruen Institute on Governance by issuing a rallying cry for pro-European sentiment. “There are those who are fueling disregard toward Europe in a worrying and unjust manner,” Rajoy told an audience that included former Italian Prime Ministers Enrico Letta and Mario Monti, and current Portuguese Prime Minister Pedro Passos Coelho.
