Spain gave the final green light Friday for the US navy to deploy four ships equipped with missile interceptors in its territory as part of NATO's ballistic defence shield.
Equipped with Aegis defence systems, the ships are to be deployed at a US naval base in Rota, southern Spain by 2013, along with 1,400 US personnel, under a deal agreed a year ago, the government said.
The government authorised the signing of the deal under a joint defence agreement at a cabinet meeting on Friday. 5th.
