Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The establishment of these routes and Spain's policy decision increases immediate social and infrastructure costs for Spain. The high volume of migrants strains primary entry points, such as Lampedusa, which serves as a main port of entry for crossings from Africa.
