The European Commission has announced that Spain, along with Italy, Cyprus, and Greece, will be able to access a solidarity fund to relocate asylum seekers or receive financial compensations starting mid-2026. This measure is part of the EU's Migration and Asylum Pact, aimed at easing migratory pressure on countries facing disproportionate arrivals. The mechanism seeks to redistribute at least 30,000 asylum seekers per year.
