Mass Amnesty for Spanish Migrants

The program targets migrants from Latin American and African countries who already work in critical sectors such as agriculture, tourism, and services.

While the move was celebrated by migrant advocacy groups and the Bangladeshi community in Barcelona, it has faced significant backlash from immigration officials.

Unions representing border workers have threatened to strike, warning that the influx of applications will cause the administrative system to collapse.

The program makes Spain a notable outlier in Europe, where anti-immigrant sentiments have been rising in neighboring nations.
