"Spain is a welcoming and integrating country, and the number of more than three million foreign workers demonstrates that they have chosen our country to develop their lives and talents, contributing to the growth of the economy and ensuring our future," said the Minister of Inclusion, Social Security, and Migration, Elma Saiz.
He also noted that more and more people from other countries are working in high-value sectors, where their experience and skills are "essential" for advancement. "They are colleagues in our work and everyday life, who contribute culture, humanity, and prosperity to our society," he concluded.
