Minister of Defence

He was Minister of Defence between 1982 and 1991. During the years 1983 until 1987, the GAL (an acronym for Grupos Antiterroristas de Liberación, "Antiterrorist Liberation Groups") were active. These were death squads illegally established by officials of the Spanish Socialist Workers Party (PSOE)-led governments. to fight against ETA, the principal Basque separatist militant group.[1]

Spied on everybody

In 2021, former banker Mario Conde assured that Prime Minister Felipe González and Serra "controlled the [intelligence service] Cesid and used it for their purposes by embezzling money from the Spaniards". The former banker calls Serra a "regrettable character" and accuses him of using his power in those positions "to spy on everyone who seemed important to him, including the King", Juan Carlos I.[2]

Conde adds that it was the former Secretary of State Julián Sancristóbal, with whom he happened to be in prison together with after being convicted of the GAL plot, who told him in prison that "Serra told him that the Bourbons had to be controlled because history showed that they were very dangerous because they had no loyalties to anyone."[2]

Boris Tadić“In Serbia, for example, we used the Club de Madrid to get the former Spanish MOD, Narcis Serra, to act as mentor to the then MOD Boris Tadic. I brought Tadic to London via the Atlantic Treaty Association (of which IfS is now the UK Rep) to expand his horizons and link him to MPs. He eventually became President.”Boris Tadić
