Spanien: Wochenchronik
Spanish economy. One of the main worries in Spain at the moment is the price of property. According to a study released today, young Spanish adults spend over 55 percent of their wage on a 25-year mortgage. See this article in El Mundo
The main debates in the radio and tv news programmes this morning center around a news item which was published by Spain's leading paper, El Pais, yesterday. This paper and leading radio station, Cadena Ser, claim they have evidence which shows that Spanish Defence Ministry doctors may not have identified correctly all the bodies of the soldiers killed in a plane crash last year when they were returning from Afghanistan. Families of the soldiers want to return to Turkey to check and compare ADN tests carried out by the Turkish authorities.
