One of Spain's deputy prime ministers apologised Thursday to the country's children for confining them to their homes since mid-March as part of a nationwide lockdown to fight the coronavirus pandemic.
"This confinement was not at all easy for you. You had to stop going to school, you stopped seeing many of your friends and family members, you had to play at home and could not go outside," Deputy Prime Minister Pablo Iglesias told a news conference.
"For all of that we ask for your forgiveness and we thank you for everything you have done," added the leader of hard left party Podemos which governs in coalition with the Socialists.
