The European Union's economy will cease to operate if its countries do not accept migrants in an interview with Bloomberg TV, Spain Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said.
"If we reject the investment in the economy of migrants, the EU will simply endure in the coming years. We will not have a growth place, "he said, answering the question about the popularity of right-wing parties in Spain, which demands an anti-illiberality policy.
According to the Prime Minister of Spain, the representatives of these parties do not solve the unemployment and the fight against the deterioration of the demographic situation.
He noted that in some important economic spheres such as construction, agriculture, social insurance and tourism, the share of migrants among employees is up to 20-30%. According to Sanchez, most migrants are arriving in Spain from Latin America, North Africa and the United States.
