Half a hundred Malians living in the streets of Vitoria, waiting to be granted asylum
Half a hundred asylum seekers from Mali live on the street in the Alavesa capital until they get an appointment to start the proceedings. The Alavesa Ivory Association has requested temporary residential solutions.
A group of about 50 refugees from Mali have been living on the streets of Vitoria for two weeks now, seeking political asylum and, while waiting for an appointment to begin the proceedings, sleeping where they can, on cardboards or mattresses, without a fixed place.
This image was seen a few months ago in San Sebastian and is now being repeated in the Alavesa capital. The group is still united and organized and has submitted a list of applications to the National Police Station, but getting an appointment is being very difficult.
The Ivory Coast Association in Álava is helping them with the procedures, but it has acknowledged that the organizations working with migrants are overstretched, and it has therefore been proposed to use some civic centre as a temporary shelter while their applications are pending resolution.
The Government delegation has indicated that they are doing everything possible to speed up the asylum process, but they have acknowledged that deadlines are being extended and that August is making management even more difficult.
Despite the situation, refugees hope that a call will soon come that will allow them to officially begin the international protection process.
