PP Proposal to Designate Balearic Islands as European Borders
The Spanish Popular Party has called for measures to address the rising tide of irregular migration from Algeria to the Balearic Islands, including declaring the archipelago as an external border of the European Union, activating the presence of the "Frontex" agency, and strengthening Spanish security forces. Over the past year, the Balearic Islands received around 5,000 migrants across 303 boats, surpassing the number of arrivals to the Canary Islands for the first time, with a 2.4% increase in migrants and a 2.7% rise in boats compared to last year. These demands come as preparations are underway for a bilateral meeting between Spain and Algeria to discuss migration issues in October, amid intensified activity along maritime routes from Algeria to the archipelago.
