Masked and distanced, Spanish PM Sanchez hits the campaign trailSpanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez wore a mask and avoided shaking hands with supporters at a political rally on Sunday as the coronavirus pandemic prompted changes to campaigning ahead of regional elections. Polls in the Basque Country and Galicia on July 12 will be the first since Spain went into lockdown in March. "The enemy of Spain is the virus," Socialist Sanchez told a reduced group of about 100 party faithful -- all wearing masks and sitting the recommended 1.5 metres apart -- at a venue in San Sebastian on the country's northern coast.
