The Spanish government’s plan to redistribute over 4,000 unaccompanied migrant minors from overcrowded centers in the Canary Islands and Ceuta has sparked a political and legal battle.

The decree, supported by a pact with Junts, mandates regional governments to accommodate these minors, but many regions, particularly those led by the opposition Popular Party (PP), are resisting.

Aragón has announced plans to challenge the measure in the Constitutional Court, calling it unfair and unconstitutional.

Meanwhile, the government has warned of sanctions and legal action against non-compliant regions.

Critics argue the funding provided is insufficient, while others see the agreement as a necessary step to address the humanitarian crisis.

The debate highlights deep divisions over migration policy and regional autonomy in Spain.
