Politics under pressure: Allegations of terrorism and migration crisis are peaked out!

Politics under pressure: Allegations of terrorism and migration crisis are peaked out!

Laimgrubengasse 10, 1060 Wien, Österreich - In the Austrian Parliament it is bubbling! The future government parties presented their program on Thursday, but there were no concise numbers. It is noteworthy that a government that has not yet been in office takes the initiative so early. This could be particularly explosive, since a member survey by the NEOS could take place on Sunday, which could question the plans of a "pink" government participation. In the meantime, the FPÖ called for urgency at the last National Council meeting on the topic of "Terror in Villach - a blatant failure to do the authorities". Interior Minister Gerhard Karner from the ÖVP rejected the allegations. This led to a violent exchange of blows on the migration policy of the past few years, as can be read in the reporting of ots.at

An important topic also remains the situation of the Ukrainian refugees in Austria. After three years of war in Ukraine, around 88,000 Ukrainians currently live in Austria, although many of them have no return plans. Bureaucratic hurdles make it difficult to find a job. Experts urge quick changes so that these people can be better integrated. Christoph Bendas reported on the current challenges within the Ukrainian community.

The Spanish approach to migration

Spain has already gained a lot of experience with migration. While African refugees are increasingly using the Canary Islands, the socialist government under Pedro Sánchez tries to regulate immigration. Spanish companies are dependent on foreign workers, which is why special recording programs for people from Latin America have been created. These steps not only aim at economic growth, but also to counteract the growing radical rights in the country. Experts emphasize that immigration is a decisive factor for the positive economic development of Spain, as Josef Manola explains in his report. In Austria, too, the topic of migration in the context of integration issues is becoming increasingly current.
