24/06/2021 | 09:38:05 Good morning. Spain, our country, traditionally has been a country of emigrants. But when we are looking at this issue from a Spanish perspective, obviously we see it through a republican prism. In the first decades of last century, Spain was a country of emigrants and at the turn of the millennium, a decade ago, the population of Spain, diaspora population, multiplied by five. Now, Spain, along with other countries of western Europe has experienced immigration over the last five decades and... 30/01/2020 | 17:55:09 Thank you President. I would like to congratulate the rapporteurs of the reports that we've been dealing with in this session. The entire Spanish delegation, particularly from the Socialist Party, we would like to say that it is of great concern to us the elevated number of victims of trafficked individuals in Europe.

We in Spain are fully committed to the freedom of the press, as well as the... 04/10/2019 | 12:34:57 Good afternoon. First and foremost, I wanted to say that this morning here, in Strasbourg, we've been talking about fundamental rights, but there are thousands of Spaniards demonstrating right now back in my country. These people are calling for equal opportunities, wherever they may live. They want a worthy future for their peoples. They want fair rights for people who live in rural areas and in sparsely populated areas. Aragon is where I'm from. That is a part of the country that is very...
