Sánchez Faces Pressure Over Migration Crisis

Published: 2024-09-11

The Spanish Prime Minister, Pedro Sánchez, is under increasing pressure to address the ongoing migration crisis.

The Popular Party (PP), along with Vox and the Mixed Group, has successfully pushed for Sánchez to explain his government's actions in Congress.

This comes after a summer marked by a surge in migrant arrivals to the Canary Islands and Ceuta.

While the PP has called for an urgent session next week, the exact date of Sánchez's appearance remains uncertain due to scheduling conflicts.

In the meantime, the Minister of Inclusion, Elma Saiz, is set to address the issue in Congress.

The PP aims to highlight what they perceive as Sánchez's parliamentary weakness, as he continues to face challenges in securing legislative support.
