Mariano Rajoy sends condolences to President of the Council of Ministers of the Italian Republic

"Dear Prime Minister,

Shocked by the news of the earthquakes that have again struck various towns and villages in the centre of your country and the avalanche that has destroyed a hotel in Farindola, in the province of Pescara, with tragic consequences, I wish to express our heartfelt condolences on the victims and our best wishes for a speedy recovery to those injured, sentiments that I would ask you pass on to the families of the victims.

Please do not hesitate to request, Mr Prime Minister, any aid you consider useful that Spain can provide at this difficult time. We will do everything in our hands to contribute to alleviating this situation".

Mariano Rajoy Brey
President of the Government of Spain
