SPANISH Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez warned on Tuesday against the rise of far-right political movements inside the European Union.

Mr Sanchez also called for unity to fight what he described as “the rotten seeds that Russian President Vladimir Putin has planted in our countries.”

In his speech to the World Economic Forum gathering in Davos, Switzerland, Mr Sanchez shared his concerns about far-right political parties being able to reach institutions and to destroy the European Union from the inside.
