　　南海網、南海網客戶端海口1月22日消息(南海網記者 胥圣蘭) 1月15日至18日，西班牙、斯洛文尼亞、白俄羅斯等17國駐華使節在海南進行實地考察，了解海南歷史文化、生態環保以及熱帶高效農業、旅游業、醫療健康等產業發展的情況，以增進理解、謀求合作。西班牙駐華大使德斯卡亞在接受南海網記者專訪時表示，海南天生就有成為自由貿易區的優勢，海南自由貿易區大有可為。

　　德斯卡亞雖然是第一次到訪海南，但海南的自然風光和經濟發展情況給他留下深刻的印象，也讓他感受到了海南發展的速度和巨大潛力。

　　“我很喜歡鳳凰港，游艇俱樂部，還有海南的自然環境和醫療設施也讓我印象深刻。當地政府做得非常好，從組織這次活動，到海南在過去十到二十年的進步，對于我來說，游艇在20年前是沒有的，所以海南真的獲得了巨大的發展。”德斯卡亞說。

　　談到海南正在建設自由貿易試驗區，德斯卡亞說，海南與西班牙有著廣闊的合作空間，海南自由貿易試驗區將是雙方尋求合作的一個很好的平臺，雙方可以繼續探討,找到合適的合作方式。

　　“中國政府在建自貿區方面有很長久的經驗，第一個上海自貿區就是一個巨大的成功，以此為經驗，我相信他們也可以把海南發展為一個自由貿易區。”他認為，海南地處中國的南部，靠近其他國家，天生就有成為自由貿易區的優勢。

　　德斯卡亞說,他見證了中國和海南在過去40年改革開放的經濟發展，相信自由貿易區的建立會繼續擴大和深化海南經濟的發展。

　　在專訪中，德斯卡亞大使饒有興致地向記者介紹起了西班牙的風土人情和特色文化，這當中自然少不了享譽世界的西班牙足球，無論是巴塞羅那還是皇家馬德里，都能讓世界球迷為之瘋狂，而當他得知在海南有一所巴塞羅那的足球學校時，他笑著說，這所學校未來將會是西班牙在廣州的一所足球學校的強勁競爭對手。

　　“我們非常高興巴塞羅那學校來到海口，我們很自豪巴塞羅那選擇了海南，一個非常棒的球隊，這意味著他們看到了海南的潛力，以及這所學校在未來的巨大可能。西班牙在廣州也有一個足球學校，可能未來兩所學校會成為競爭對手。” 德斯卡亞笑著說。

　　On January 15, diplomatic envoys from Sri Lanka, Cape Verde, Bulgaria, Costa Rica, Peru, Spain and other 17 foreign embassies in China launched a five-day trip in Hainan, and investigated the local industries of health care, historical culture, ecological protection, tropic agriculture and tourism.

　　“The geography of Hainan makes it a natural place for the free trade zone, it can be a great success,” the Ambassador of Spain to China H.E. Mr. Rafael DezcallarMazarredo told hinews.cn.

　　Although it’s the first time for the ambassador to visit Hainan, he was still fascinated by the beautiful scenery and rapid development of Hainan.

　　“I enjoyed the harbor very much, the yachts club, the environment and the facilities that are shown to us in the previous day,” he said, “the local government had done a very good job, from organizing this trip, the progress that Hainan has made in the last 10 or 20 years, for me for instance, to see the yacht club area which didn’t exit 20 years ago, so clearly you are doing great progress.”

　　The nation decided to support Hainan in building the whole island into a pilot free trade zone in April, 2018, the ambassador said this is a very good opportunity for both sides to seek international cooperation.

　　"The Chinese government has a long experience in free trade zones, the first one in Shanghai was a huge success, from that experience, I’m sure they would develop the right combination to make Hainan a free trade zone," said the ambassador, "I think the geography of Hainan, in the most southern part of China, close to other countries, make Hainan a natural place for the free trade zone."

　　Having seen the development of economy in Hainan and China in the last 40 years of the opening up and reform, the ambassador is sure that the free trade zone would continue to help enlarging and deepening the economic development of Hainan.

　　During the interview, the ambassador introduced the customs and local culture of Spain to the local media, including the legendary football club FC Barcelona (FCB), which opened the first FCB football school outside of Spain in Haikou in February 2017.

　　"We are very happy about the school, we are proud Barcelona has chosen Hainan for this project, a very nice team, If they had chosen Hainan it’s because they see the potential here, for the school with a great possibility in the future," said the ambassador.

　　"The Real Madrid also has a football school in Guangzhou, so maybe it’s a rival competing with each other," he said with a smile.
