MOSCOW (Sputnik) – Canary Islands President Fernando Clavijo has accused the Spanish government of inaction amid the continued arrival of unaccompanied minors on the archipelago.
«It is clear to us that the country’s government is not interested in what is happening in the Canary Islands. It has been 21 days since we sent a proposal for a decree law on unaccompanied minors, but there is still no response,» Clavijo said on X on Tuesday, referring to an initiative that would require the mandatory placement of migrant minors in other Spanish autonomous communities.
At the same time, Clavijo added that the autonomous community will continue to look for alternatives in the face of the Spanish government’s inability to resolve the humanitarian problem on the archipelago.
