El presidente del Gobierno, Pedro Sánchez, mantuvo un encuentro con la presidenta del Govern balear, Marga Prohens.

The president of the Balearic Islands, Marga Prohens, has demanded from the head of the Executive, Pedro Sánchez, a “change” in the strategy of Spain’s immigration policy, beyond the transfer of migrantminors arriving at Spanish coasts, calling for the reestablishment of relations with Algeria. In the press conference after the bilateral bilateral meeting that both leaders have held at the Palace of La MoncloaProhens has explained that they have also spoken about the migratory crisis and that she has transferred to him the data related to this matter in the Balearic archipelago. In this context, Prohens has advanced that the Balearic Islands “can not” receive more migrant minors from “new distributions” by the central government, especially of people arriving in the Canary Islands: “It is not a question of solidarity, it is a question of capacity”. To the thread, the Balearic president has demanded “the involvement” of the central government, which has exclusive competence in immigration matters, pointing out that the prosecutor of minors “has already expressed that we must go beyond distributions”. “It is necessary to address a change in the strategy of migration policy in Spain. In the specific case of the Balearic Islands, it is essential that Spain re-establishes relations with Algeria, as since this rupture there has been an increase in the arrival of small boats from the Algerian coast and the migratory route between Algeria and the Balearic Islands has been consolidated”, he detailed. However, Prohens said she was unaware of the state of negotiations between the Government and the PP for the transfer of minors, although she stressed that “we cannot only speak” of a distribution because, as she said, the situation of each community “is different”.
