The authorities in Malta have demanded explanations to NATO about rescue conducted last Sunday by the Spanish frigate Almirante Juan de Borbon a hundred of immigrants travelling in a boat adrift about 100 miles off the coast of Libya. The Minister of the Interior and justice of Malta, Carmelo Mifsud Bonnici, said at press conference in Valletta which the Admiral Juan de Borbon is currently in international waters after receiving the refusal by the Maltese authorities to dock at its port, waiting to receive explanations of NATO. Mifsud Bonnici does not understand why after helping the boat the Spanish frigate, which participates in the arms embargo on Libya under NATO command, headed towards Malta if the rescue occurred 78 miles from Tunisia, 88 of the Italian island of Lampedusa and Malta 141. The problem is not ours, but is surely a problem for NATO and it corresponds to them to solve it, said the Maltese Interior Minister, in statements which collects the Times of Malta newspaper. The Maltese authorities claim that they were advertised in that the Spanish frigate was heading for its port 18 hours after the rescue and when the Admiral Juan de Borbon was only 40 miles from the island. Act followed, according to Mifsud Bonnici, asked NATO if they had issued a request to accommodate the frigate with immigrants also Tunisia and Italy, authorities about that, said the Minister of the Interior of Malta, have not yet received response..
