Migration has never been a problem for Spain but when it is done through illegal means than that could be serious. Over 500 hundred Africans boarded on a boat were intercepted by
Spanish police this week. The migrants were attempting to dock at Canary Islands but they're plans were busted. Illegal settlers to the country have been a commonplace in Spain prompting the government to use satellites and other monitoring equipments. But not this huge and it only happened in one day.
Because of the proximity of the Canary Islands to northwest Africa, African destitutes are trying all their luck to settle in Europe for a better life. Boarding in small boats, these migrants some of them women including minors come from sub-Saharan parts of Africa. For this year only, Spain had received over 6,900 Africans, a very significant increase from last year's which is totaling at 4,751 Africans. And it seems that among all the
other European countries, Spain has been the target of these estranged Africans. Spanish ambassadors are set to journey to the countries where these migrants originated to settle and iron things out in the hopes that their respective governments can control the illegal migration.
