Spain says Barcelona back in the race to host EU drugs agency
15 November 2017 - Spain's move to take direct control of Catalonia and thwart the region's independence bid has put Barcelona back in the race to host the EMA once it leaves London after Brexit, Spain's health minister said on Wednesday.
The European Union is due to pick the winner among 19 candidates, among them Amsterdam, Vienna, Milan and Copenhagen, on Monday 20 November.
But Spain's Health Minister Dolors Montserrat said this "risk" had now been dealt with and Barcelona was back in shape.
