• Badalona faces a social conflict after an eviction at the old B9 institute immigrant settlement.
• Police forces had to intervene between neighbors in conflict over the resettlement of immigrants.
• The President of the Generalitat, Salvador Illa, says his government is working to resolve the crisis.
• Xavier García Albiol, the mayor of Badalona, requested the eviction and rejected the idea of resettling the immigrants.
• The crisis has been poorly managed, generating more tension and expanding its perimeter.
• Albiol's behavior pursues a quixotic goal of making migrants disappear.
• Immigration is a complex phenomenon that does not admit easy solutions and should not be politicized.

Conclusion: The immigration crisis in Badalona requires compassionate and realistic approach, not a politicized and simplistic view. Albiol's conduct contributes to the conflict and does not provide effective solutions.
