Migration

One of the spokespersons for the protest that took place today read a manifesto recalling that these Malians left their country to escape war and poverty and that they must wait to process their asylum application because "in most cases, efforts are delayed for years".

According to a study by Ikuspegi, the Basque Observatory for Immigration, less than 10% of Basques mention immigration as the main problem in the country and only 2.7% say it affects them personally.

The Chief Welfare Officer has warned of the danger of populist discourse unless a common, orderly integration strategy is pursued.

The provisional agreement between the Council of Europe and the European Parliament shall extend the grounds for non-admission of applications for protection. 

The president has begun his speech by repeating many of the things he says in his nearly daily public appearances: attacking immigrants and the government of his predecessor, Joe Biden, and ensuring that in just a few months the US has gone "from the worst to the best" thanks to deportations, strict border closures, or the use of tariffs against other countries.

Father Mari has landed 53 of the 56 rescued in the Mediterranean last Friday at the Italian port of Brindisi, where the two-month-old baby and his parents were treated by the Italian Coast Guard for extreme malnutrition and dehydration.

The rescue took place this morning, 34 thousand nautical miles south-east of Lampedusa. Among those rescued are seven babies and 16 minors.

The US authorities have described it as a "huge achievement," within the framework of Trump's tough migration policies, just days after he announced that there will be dozens of judges to "speed up deportations."

7 out of 10 of them live in the three capitals. In addition, another 2,700 are homeless, but they sleep in night shelters or shelters. The majority are men and 8 out of 10 foreigners. Half say they have stolen money or property, 4 out of 10 have been insulted or threatened, and 3 out of 10 have been physically assaulted.

After firing more than 100 migrants from the old Augustine building in Martutene in the morning, the reception network that has been helping them has demonstrated this afternoon in San Sebastian from the Egia courts, denouncing that many have been left on the streets, in a situation of exclusion, and that some 400 people are already on the street in San Sebastian.

The rescued persons, including 16 minors, are safe and sound and are receiving humanitarian aid on board. The Italian authorities have authorized the Father Mari to go to the port of Civitaveccia in Rome three days after the rescue site. 

The President of the United States has announced that he will expel "anyone who is not a net asset to the United States." "I will deport any foreigner who is a public burden, a security risk or incompatible with Western civilization." He has also called a journalist  who asked him a question about the shooting in Washington.

According to the Maritime Humanitarian Rescue Organization, "in winter fewer migrants use the Mediterranean waterways," but those who use them "risk more of themselves." 

In the midst of the extreme winter, they just want someone to listen to them and give them a way out so that they can start a new life away from war and threats.

The President of the Canary Islands Government has stated that the situation of unaccompanied migrant minors remains "quite entrenched" and has advocated territorial cooperation.

The new agreement has been signed at the Ajuria Enea Palace in Vitoria-Gasteiz by lehendakari, Imanol Pradales, and the president of the Basque College of Urbanism, Jean-René Etchegaray, and the mayor of Baiona, who have reaffirmed their willingness to "build a common vision of how to face political, economic, social and environmental challenges together."

The three left-wing parties will take advantage of their majority in the Chamber of Vitoria-Gasteiz to push through the agreed text on the reception centre, in which they will ask the Spanish Government to initiate a "constructive dialogue" on the subject. In a short time, it will be the second time that PNV and PSE-EE have disagreed: at the beginning of October, the Socialists did not support the PNV proposal to shield the Basque Country.

Of the 30,000 migrants who arrived in Europe by sea last year, 16,000, more than half, left Mauritania, 6,400 from Morocco and 6,400 from Senegal. This year the number has decreased considerably. The police presence has increased in recent months following the signing of agreements with the Spanish and European governments to contain migration.
