MADRID: Spain´s left-wing government on Tuesday announced an immigration law reform regularising tens of thousands more migrants per year, in a fresh contrast to harsher policies elsewhere in Europe.
Socialist Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez says Spain needs migration to fill workforce gaps and counteract an ageing population that could imperil pensions and the welfare state.
Economic concerns are also at the heart of the latest reform, which eases requirements for visas, extends their duration in some cases and simplifies paperwork.
