La Comisión Europea recordó este martes que cualquier condición impuesta por un Gobierno para aprobar una transacción debería ser "excepcional, proporcionada y justificada por razones de interés público válidas", aunque rehusó pronunciarse en concreto sobre la decisión del Ejecutivo español respecto a la opa del BBVA por el Sabadell.

The director of the BBVA Northern Territorial Delegation, Marta Alonso, has explained that they are prepared to increase the presence of the entity in the Basque Country and has also defended the "goodness" of the EEP in Sabadell.

The Spanish Government authorizes the public offer on Sabadell ondo calls from the Basque financial institution to address the news that will take place in the next few days.

At a press conference held in Bilbao to present the report 'Situation in the Basque Country 2025' by BBVA Research, Alonso stressed that the financial institution is prepared to "assess new investment opportunities" in the territory and reiterated that its relationship with the Basque Government is "constant and fluid. We are ready to continue to make progress in the talks and to have as much presence as possible", he stressed.

The announcement comes after President Imanol Pradales recently asked the BBVA for greater commitment and roots in the Basque Country. The entity stresses that they are ready to respond to this demand and continue to grow.
