The Minister of Social Affairs, Family, and Youth, Ana Dávila, conveyed this position to the Minister of Territorial Policy and Democratic Memory, Ángel Víctor Torres, through a letter. In it, the Community of Madrid warns of potential legal actions if the central Executive attempts to prolong this extraordinary system.

This disagreement arises after Ángel Víctor Torres reported weeks ago on the transfer of approximately 1,800 unaccompanied foreign minors to the peninsula since September 1, 2025, from Canary Islands, Ceuta, and Melilla. The minister defended the continuity of the relocation system, describing it as a matter of justice and solidarity.

The Government of Isabel Díaz Ayuso considers it “striking” that, after publicly declaring the end of the contingency, the central Executive now intends to maintain an extraordinary mechanism that, in the Community's view, lacks regulatory support. Madrid argues that the maximum period for executing minor transfers, according to Royal Decree-Law 2/2025 approved on March 18, 2025, was one year.

Minister Dávila criticizes the implementation of the decree, noting that it has resulted in a transfer system that has ignored coordination with protection entities, individualized assessment of each minor, and, at times, the will of those affected and their family situation. She has reported cases of siblings being separated and minors with relatives in other autonomous communities or close to adulthood being transferred, which would leave them in a vulnerable situation.

The Community of Madrid links the current migratory pressure to the management of the central Government, accusing it of not having adequately exercised its powers in foreign policy, border control, and immigration. Dávila reproaches the Government for moving “from silence and inaction to imposition,” replacing cooperation with unilateral decisions that, in her opinion, have jeopardized regional protection systems and created a pull factor difficult to reverse.
