PP y VOX rechazan asignación de habilidades migratorias a generales: «Es una distribución arbitraria»
The city council of Zaragoza rejected a motion regarding the transfer of immigration powers to the Generalitat of Catalonia, with votes from the PP and VOX parties. They considered the distribution of unaccompanied immigrant minors to be arbitrary and criticized the measure for violating the Spanish Constitution.
The PP spokesperson in Zaragoza, Ángel Lorén, argued that the transfer of powers created inequality, as Catalonia, with a population of 8 million, would receive 20 minors while Aragon, with 1.2 million inhabitants, would receive 186. He stated that this would lead to misery in regions like Aragon, which lack resources.
Suso Domínguez, a councilor, criticized the reduction of development cooperation by 80% and the refusal of PP-VOX in Valencia to accept unaccompanied minors. He emphasized the need for adequate resources to address the issue.
Julio Calvo, spokesperson for Vox, highlighted the importance of maintaining equality between regions and not privileging one over the other. He questioned whether a socialist could justify the requirements of a minority party and still claim to represent the interests of the people.
Ángel Lorén from the PP criticized the migration pact between the Spanish government and Catalan nationalists, stating that it would not only deplete resources but also increase vulnerability.
Paco Galán, a councilor from the PSOE, accused the PP and Vox of spreading fear and division in Spain. He warned against demonizing immigrant minors and associating them with criminal activities, urging for a more compassionate approach.
Overall, the debate in Zaragoza highlighted concerns about the distribution of immigrant minors, the constitutionality of the measures, and the need for a coordinated and fair immigration policy at the national level. The disagreement between political parties reflected broader tensions regarding immigration and regional autonomy in Spain.
