definition and use of " apostillado"

Question

While attempting to translate an article written in Spanish, I came across the following sentence: "El presente y el futuro de España, de su bienestar, de su recuperación económica, dependerá de la fortaleza y la voluntad política de Unión que tengamos los europeos", ha apostillado. I cannot understand the use of "ha apostillado" or exactly what the article is saying with this word. Any enlightenment will be appreciated.

Muchas Gracias,

Jim

Apostillar means something like, "to note" or "to add", in the sense of annotating something. This particular sentence sounds a bit odd to me, but it means something like, "he has add/noted". I probably would have used preterit.
