Today, for example, Spain is filled with hope as we embark on a new period of recovery and transformation, with a successful vaccination campaign that has now enabled 75 per cent of our population to be fully vaccinated. That statistic is in stark contrast with statistics in countries in which the percentage of those protected against COVID-19 barely reaches 1 per cent of the population. That is the case for a country on which we are all focused today — I refer of course to Afghanistan.
