I do agree blocking Palantir is a good move but the Spanish government is doing it for the wrong reason. Spain is storing all sort of data on Chinese servers, including their Intelligence, and Judicial wiretaps.

I am talking about the current government corruption cases, I assume Mexico is worse, but Spain isn't great for Europe either
The made up cases are so many that they deflect each other and the few real ones. The real scandal is the state of our judicial power.
This is pretty common in any country going through a populist phase, they go against the judicial, as is happening in the US

I think the immigration is what keeps Spain from turning into another Japan or Germany - a stagnant, overly old place stuck in time.
Besides the mentioned comments Spanish speaking immigration is much more welcomed by radical right
AND
Germany had a lot of German speaking immigration from Eastern Europe. There are just no German speaking minorities left in other countries.

Islands are extremely vulnerable to climate change all over, as they are completely dependent in near-term precipitation for all their water (no rivers, no aquifers).
No rivers and no water is reality here for quite a while already. The islands rely a lot on desalination, and there is a big EU-funded project going on to create a desalination plant that not only is used to supply tap water, but the water basin of a new hydroelectric plant [0]. Desalination pretty much solves water issues, IF you have the energy (ideally renewable). [0]: https://renewablesnow.com/news/construction-s…
Desalination solves water issues for tap water. Islands may be short on surface area.
I would also never use the word "solve", as this is just for human usage. The ecosystems themselves are irreversibly destroyed.
