MADRID Wholesale Chicago Bears Hats , July 10 (Xinhua) -- President of the United States Barak Omaba met King Felipe VI of Spain and acting Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy on Sunday during his brief visit to Spain.


Obama, who landed in Madrid late on Saturday night, visited the King for a reception at the Royal Palace in the center of Madrid at 10:30 a.m. local time.


The pair made a short appearance for the press, with Felipe stressing that the United States was "a friend and a decisive nation on the world," and that Spain and the U.S. shared "principals, values and interests."


In response Obama said that America and Spain "were not just allies Wholesale Cincinnati Bengals Hats , but countries which had the same ideals, among them, freedom and respect for the rule of law," a sentiment he would later repeat following his reunion with Prime Minister Rajoy at his official residence, the Palacio de la Moncloa.


Following discussions lasting around an hour, Obama and Rajoy made declarations which were beamed to the press room in Moncloa via a TV screen.


The pair said they had discussed Brexit and Obama expressed hope that Wholesale Cleveland Browns Hats , "negotiations can be managed in a way that does not have adverse effects for Europe and the UK."


"If you believe the exchange of trade, culture and ideas can be a good thing, then it has to be accompanied with policies which ensure workers have fair wages and that the social system is strengthened for the 21st century and addresses environmental issues," Obama said.


Rajoy said Spain would "have a constructive attitude in negotiations with the UK," and that the two leaders had also spoken about "refugees and the problems of Libya and Syria and the need to resolve them as soon as possible.


Both highlighted the close ties between Spain and the United States, which were strengthened by the large "Spanish speaking community" in America.


After concluding his meeting with Rajoy Wholesale Dallas Cowboys Hats , Obama flew from the military airport of Torrejon, just outside of Madrid, to the U.S. military base at Rota in the southwest of Spain.


There he addressed the 3,000 U.S. troops and civilians living there, telling them the U.S. "couldn't ask for a better ally than Spain," before taking off to return to Washington DC at 8 p.m. local time.


The schedule of Obama's visit to Spain was changed at short notice on Saturday as a result of the shooting of 5 police officers in Dallas. As a result he was in Spain for less than 24 hours and was forced to drop a planned visit to the city of Seville.


Security measures were high during Obama's brief time in the country Wholesale Denver Broncos Hats , but that didn't stop protestors from environmental group Greenpeace hanging a large banner protesting against TTIP negotiations from a building on Madrid's Gan Via.


Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair on Thursday warned voters that time was running out to reverse Brexit, a folly he said would torpedo Britain's remaining clout and be regretted for generations to come.

More than a year and a half since the 2016 Brexit vote, the United Kingdom remains deeply divided over the planned EU exit that Prime Minister Theresa May says will take place on March 29 Wholesale Detroit Lions Hats , 2019.


Both opponents and supporters of Brexit agree that the divorce is Britain's most significant geopolitical move since World War Two, though they cast vastly different futures for the $2.5 trillion UK economy and its relation with the world's biggest trading bloc.


Blair, Labour prime minister from 1997 to 2007, said Britain would be poorer, weaker and warned that May had solved none of the problems over Northern Ireland's post-Brexit status.


"We are making an error the contemporary world cannot understand and the generations of the future will not forgive," Blair said in an article published on his website on Thursday.


"2018 will be the last chance to secure a say on whether the new relationship proposed with Europe is better than the existing one Wholesale Green Bay Packers Hats ," Blair, 64, said.


Leaving the European Union was once far-fetched: just over 15 years ago, British leaders such as Blair were arguing about when to join the euro, and talk of an EU exit was the reserve of skeptics on the fringes of both major parties.


But the turmoil of the euro zone crisis, fears in Britain about immigration and a series of miscalculations by former Prime Minister David Cameron prompted the United Kingdom to vote 52 to 48 percent for Brexit in a June 2016 referendum.


Blair has repeatedly called for reversing Brexit Wholesale Houston Texans Hats , echoing other opponents of Brexit such as French President Emmanuel Macron and billionaire investor George Soros, who have suggested that Britain could still change its mind.


So far, opinion polls show little sign of a change of heart and it is unclear how Brexit could be stopped if both major political parties officially support the divorce.


Half of Britons support a second vote on whether to leave the European Union and a majority think the government may be paying too much money to the EU to open the way to trade talks, according to an opinion poll published last month.


Supporters of Brexit dismissed Blair and said he was undermining both the British negotiation and the will of the people.


"Blair and his elitist gang are damaging our negotiating strength, thus damaging our national interest by their continuing efforts to undermine democracy," said Richard Tice Wholesale Indianapolis Colts Hats , who helped found one of the two Leave campaign groups.


"History will not forgive them," Tice told Reuters.


Blair is unpopular in Britain for his decision to back then-U.S. President George W. Bush’s 2003 invasion of Iraq and the justification he used for going into a war that cost the deaths of 150,000 Iraqi civilians and 179 British soldiers.


But he has beco.
