  • The Trump administration is resorting to Guantanamo to confine irregular immigrants.
  • This policy has led to protests and legal challenges from democratically ruled states and cities.
  • In Spain, the government and the government of the Canary Islands agreed to potentially redistribute more than 4,000 unaccompanied migrant minors.
  • PP and Vox opposed this agreement, suggesting it favored Catalunya and the Basque Country.
  • Catalunya and the Basque Country are leading in hosting migrant minors.
  • Resistance to hosting migrants mainly comes from regions governed by the PP.

Conclusion: Immigration policy is being manipulated both in the United States and Spain, often to the detriment of migrants and for political gain. Regions are being blamed and punished oppositely to their willingness to help.
