You know, other European countries are tightening border control. voice-verified

Spain has offered an amnesty to half a million people who had entered the country irregularly. voice-verified

And obviously there was a Supreme Court ruling recently in Spain that migrants who were intercepted while swimming to Sweden could not be summarily deported. voice-verified

Well, this is one of the questions because a lot of the commentary this morning are saying, look, it's inconceivable that such a large number would be allowed to cross the border without some kind of approval from Morocco, which we have to note as well, is enjoying Donald Trump's favour because they have normalised relations with Iraq. voice-verified

So are there broader geopolitics at play? voice-verified

Yeah, very, very similar. voice-verified

So the question is, how did this happen all of a sudden, 50,000 people? voice-verified

I know there was lots of social media and everything in advance for it. voice-verified

Shona Murray, I know you're busy this morning. voice-verified

Europe correspondent, Euronews, thank you for joining us this morning. voice-verified

Aisling Maloney, Ireland is currently holding the rotating presidency of the European Union and so it's responsible for a lot of the coordination and response in the coming days. voice-verified

And I think that that is something Janet Horne, a Green Party councillor, that... voice-verified

you know, has been really, really picked up, the role of social media, but also the extent to which this is a gift for the far right, these images that we've seen coming from that tiny enclave. voice-verified

The US generally is not very happy with Spain's stance on a number of issues. voice-verified

Peter Brown, as Janet was saying, those images, they are ripe for the taking in terms of being exploited by many actors. voice-verified

Can I, Gerry, just ask you, look, I mean, Kerry, like many places, has been home to, you know, to refugees, to migrants of various different status. voice-verified

Look, I mean, how do you think things like that play out when we receive them at home domestically? voice-verified

We're lucky we're not on that, you know, that front line, that Italy, that the Balkans, that Greece and actually Spain laterally encounter. voice-verified

Of course, many elements of the tourism were very happy at the outset, should be noted. voice-verified

Janet Horner, we're constantly being forewarned as well about the impact of climate and what that's going to have in terms of global migration trends. voice-verified
