"another incursion by the Guardia Civil, Gibraltar has got to know about it. The RGP, which chased them in our waters, has remained silent.
Down-playing such a serious and important matter is not in the interests of Gibraltar.
It is patently obvious that the Spanish are sending their vessels so close to Gibraltar to try and prove that our waters are theirs.
By not challenging the Spanish incursions, all that we do is to give credence to the Spanish sovereignty claim of our British territorial waters.
And when the local enforcement agencies challenge the Spanish vessels out of our waters, they ought to make a public statement about it - because that in itself helps create an awareness that the Spaniards are acting wrongly and in an unneighbourly manner, which can only help bolster rejection of their absurd claim."
