The Government delegate in the Valencian Community, Pilar Bernabé, has announced that approximately 100,000 people in the region will benefit from the extraordinary migrant regularization process, which is expected to reach half a million across the entire State.

Bernabé made these statements to journalists during her visit to the post-dana emergency works in Riba-roja de Túria. The delegate praised this regularization process, recalling that it was supported by the Congress of Deputies with the favorable vote of the PP and has been «praised» by the Episcopal Conference, business employers, and all economic and social agents, as it «will benefit our country».
Furthermore, the Government delegate criticized the statements made by members of the Valencian Government regarding this measure, asserting that they follow «the orders of their president of the Popular Party, who in turn is under the orders of what Mr. Abascal tells him for his dealings in the autonomous communities, to see if they don't have to call elections again in some of them».

"We are seeing how European leaders are confronting those ultra positions of Trump in the United States, and yet, here the Popular Party with Alberto Núñez Feijoo and Abascal continue to advocate positions that, of course, have nothing to do with our country."

Bernabé lamented this «folding or retreating or kneeling before what Mr. Feijóo's far-right tells them». She defended that Spain wants to «look to the future», which means having «a strong society, a society with workers, a society with people who culturally enrich our society and our coexistence», and that the regularization process will make this possible.
When asked about the strike called by the CCOO union due to the overload that the measure will entail for immigration offices, Bernabé indicated that discussions are ongoing at the Ministry and therefore conversations are in progress.
