Who has power over Spain's international relations?

✓ El Estado

International relations are the power of the State. It is the Government, with the Ministerio de Asuntos Exteriores (the Foreign Ministry), that signs treaties and represents Spain in other countries and organisations. The comunidades autónomas (regions with self-government) can have offices to promote their economy and culture, but they do not negotiate like a country. Remember these State matters: international relations, defence, nationality and foreigners' affairs.
