The newspaper broke the story this morning (via Twitter/@ggreenwald).

Spain's Secretary of State, Inigo Mendez de Vigo, and U.S. Ambassador to Spain, James Costos, met this morning and are still waiting to receive more information from U.S. officials. Discussions will continue later this month. 

Spain’s leading newspaper, El Mundo, claims the NSA tracked over 60 million phone calls within the span of a month last December. 

The information was derived from Edward Snowden’s documents. Snowden is a previous NSA contractor who is hiding out in Russia to avoid arrest by U.S. officials. 

"As in previous occasions, we've asked the U.S. ambassador to give the government all the necessary information on an issue which, if it was to be confirmed, could break the climate of trust that has traditionally been the one between our two countries," said Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Garcia-Margallo. 

Spain is not the first country to call for such a meeting. France did so just last week, as well as Germany calling for a “no-spy deal” after chancellor Angela Merkel’s phone was tapped.
