Blinken reported the conversation on his Twitter account, in which he also reported similar contacts with his colleagues from Germany, Heiko Maas, and Italy, Luigi Di Maio.
For his part, Albares indicated on the same social network that he had spoken with Blinken about the situation in Afghanistan and how Spain and the United States can work together with the rest of their partners and allies.
