It’s worth remembering that the EU’s Migrant Pact came into force on June 12 2026
It means that when there’s a sudden big influx of illegal migrants arriving in a country (Spain), that country can use the EU’s Solidarity Mechanism.
It obliges other EU states taking in quota migrants from that country (to relieve pressure) or having to pay tens of thousands euros for every quota migrant assigned to them that they refused take in.
Under the EU’s Migrant Pact (which wasn’t passed in a unanimous vote but through qualified majority voting) other EU member states might be forced to take some of the thousands of illegal migrants storming Ceuta and Melilla today, or they might be forced to pay for them.

The key to saving the environment is not looking backward, it’s moving forward.
I realized this the first time I visited Italy twenty years ago. Everything was clean and green. The rivers sparkled. The lesson for me was obvious: the answer is not underdevelopment. The answer is progress.
When China was poor, the air was so polluted that people could barely see the blue sky. Today, blue skies have returned to their cities. Development does not only create wealth, it also provides the resources needed to restore and protect the environment.
Some environmentalists want us to preserve every aspect of our biodiversity, including the mosquitoes for example, so that researchers can fly in once every ten years from their universities (which build particle accelerators and billion-dollar laboratories with their pocket money), study our ecosystems, and count how many people died from dengue outbreaks.
They want to buy our air through carbon credits. If carbon credits were such a great deal, they would be selling them to us, not the other way around.
Cleaning every river, lake, and water source in El Salvador, and ensuring they remain clean and sparkling, would cost roughly $12 billion. Where is that money supposed to come from without economic development? Carbon credits?
The path forward for our country is the path of Japan and Singapore, not the path of the Congo.
