Spain's Immigration Solution Turns Into a Crisis

• Spain has leaned harder into immigration than any other Western country to offset demographic decline — naturalizing roughly 2.25 million people and running repeated amnesties, lifting total population from ~42 million to ~47 million.
• That same permissiveness now looks like a liability: an estimated 60,000 migrants crossed into the Spanish enclave of Ceuta from Morocco, and Italy has suspended free-movement arrangements with Spain in response.
• Named concept: French officials are pinning the Ceuta surge directly on PM Pedro Sánchez’s migrant-legalization policy, turning Spain’s demographic fix into a live European political crisis.
