New photo Trump suggested wall across Sahara, Spain's foreign minister claims

Donald Trump suggested building a wall across the Sahara to tackle Europe's migrant crisis, Spain's foreign minister has claimed.

Josep Borrell said the US President had insisted the type of barrier he has vowed to build along America's border with Mexico would work for Europe as well.

Spain has become a key entry point for migrants who follow a 'Western Mediterranean Route' to Europe from Northern Africa. Many of the refugees are from sub-Saharan nations.

The former President of the European Parliament did not reveal when Trump had put forward his radical idea. But diplomatic sources suggested it had been in June when he flew to the States in a trip coinciding with the visit to the White House of the Spanish King and Queen.

Mr Borrell revealed Trump's Saharan wall 'solution' during a lunch in Madrid organised by cultural association Club Siglo XXI, which was formed in 1969 and is known for holding prestigious debates, conferences and forums.

Spanish daily El Pais said he had made it clear he disagreed with Donald Trump's diagnosis but insisted a policy had to be put in place to deal with the fact Africa would double its population in the next 20 years.

Mr Borrell also took the opportunity at the event in Madrid to attack Italy's right-wing Interior Minister Matteo Salvini who made his mark in the job by turning away a boatload of more than 600 African refugees in June and leaving Spain to pick up the pieces.

Spain has overtaken Italy and Greece as a popular entry point for migrants.

EU border agency Frontex registered 12,500 arrivals in August - with 6,500 of them reaching Spain's Mediterranean coastline and making the country the main EU port of arrival for migrants for the second month running.

Most of those reaching Spain were from Morocco, Guinea and Mali.

Nearly 30,000 migrants used the Western Mediterranean route in the first eight months of the year according to Frontex, double the figure for last year.

President Trump said earlier this month he was considering using military resources to finish construction of his long-promised border wall instead of relying on Congress to fund it.

He has insisted Mexico will pay for it since he started touting the idea of a border block during his presidential campaign. Mexican officials have consistently said they will not pay. 

Baker's son Mr Borrell was appointed Foreign Minister in June when Pedro Sanchez became PM after winning a no-confidence motion he proposed against the country's former right-wing leader Mariano Rajoy.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”

Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
