Spain put forward Agriculture Minister Luis Planas as a candidate for the top job at the United Nations' Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) on March 16.

Spanish Foreign Minister José Manuel Albares announced the decision during his doorstep at the Foreign Council Affairs in Brussels.

"It is a Spanish candidacy, but one that has a European vocation and also reflects Spain's belief in multilateralism and the United Nations, at a time when food security is absolutely fundamental," Albares said.

Planas becomes a third European candidate for the post after EU agriculture ministers agreed at this month's Brussels summit they should try to unite behind a single European contender.
