French Minister of the Interior, Charles Pasqua and the Spanish Minster of Justice and Interior, Juan Alberto Belloch, agreed at a meeting in Madrid on a package under which Spain would control and place under surveillance Islamic fundamentalists in return for French collaboration in the fight against ETA.

Pasqua said that members of the Algerian Islamic Salvation Front expelled from France were entering Spain illegally. Sources in the Civil Government of the Province of Gipuzkoa (the Basque border province to France) said that the "Security Forces" had been increasing border controls strictly applying the provisions of the Law on Aliens. The Civil Government represents the central Spanish government in province and working to the Ministry of Interior and Justice oversees so-called "public order".
