The Minister of Territorial Policy and Democratic Memory, Ángel Víctor Torres, has appealed this Thursday for empathy with the victims of migratory routes and has stressed that "this human drama challenges all of us. Spain. Europe. The world."
In a message published on social networks, the former Canary Islands president reacts in this way to the latest tragedy in the archipelago's waters, where in the last few hours a canoe with 44 survivors and five bodies has been rescued, out of the 128 people who left a month ago from Gambia.
A "heartbreaking news" that leads him to reflect: "if we do not understand the world we live in and put a face to those who suffer and flee from hunger, wars, and persecution, we will never be able to face the challenges to come as a society."
"This human drama challenges all of us. Spain. Europe. The world," proclaims Minister Torres.
