The Spanish government is pushing for a mandatory distribution of unaccompanied migrant minors across the country, particularly to alleviate pressure on the Canary Islands.

With over 6,000 minors under its care, the Canary Islands government claims the situation is unsustainable.

The proposed reform of the Foreigners Law aims to make the relocation of minors obligatory when a region exceeds 150% of its capacity.

However, the plan faces opposition from some political parties and regional governments.

The Popular Party (PP) is hesitant to support the reform, while Vox threatens to break coalition governments if the PP agrees.

The government plans to present the proposal in Parliament before the summer recess, emphasizing the need for solidarity and humanitarian action.
