Juan Fernando Lopez Aguilar, a Spanish socialist MEP and former chairman of the civil liberties, justice and home affairs (LIBE) commitee, told Euronews about the consequences for Europe of US president Donald Trump’s crackdown on migration.
ADVERTISEMENTHow should the EU deal with the impact of Donald Trump's migration policy? Today Radio Schuman answers the question together with Juan Fernando Lopez Aguilar, a Spanish socialist MEP with experience on EU migration policies.
The International Centre for Migration Policy Development has said there will be a surge of migrants from South America to Spain as a result of Trump's policies.
But though Aguilar thinks Trump's policy is “utterly wrong” he also thinks a surge of central or South American migration following Trump’s crackdown on migration would be good for Spain, as those migrants have been a pillar of Spanish society.
Radio Schuman also takes a look at upcoming Belarusian elections and a project to enable people to live for long periods at the bottom of oceans.
