Spain's PM defends migrant regularization

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez has announced his government is approving and advancing a process to regularize the status of approximately half a million immigrants. In a public statement posted to social media, he directly addressed right-wing and far-right opponents of the measure, declaring that Spain is 'the daughter of migration and will not become the mother of xenophobia.' The policy represents a significant expansion of Spain's immigration framework and has become a central point of political contention.
