Spain will have three large reception and care centers for people fleeing the war in Ukraine, one of which will be in

Alicante

, where an important colony of people from that country resides.

This was announced this Saturday, after the meeting held at the Palau de la Generalitat Valenciana by the Minister of the Presidency, Félix Bolaños, and the President of the Valencian Government, Ximo Puig, in which, among other matters, the situation was analyzed from Ukraine.

Bolaños explained that they have spoken with the Minister of Inclusion and Migration, José Luis Escrivá, to specify aspects of the reception system for Ukrainians who end up in Spain, to whom they want to show that "Spain is supportive".

The Valencian president has specified that in Spain there will be "three important reception centers" for people who arrive from Ukraine fleeing the war, one of which will be in the Valencian Community, where 21,000 people of Ukrainian nationality reside, more than half in Alicante.

A "solidarity convoy"

Specifically, he explained that Alicante will host one of these three large centers, for which the Generalitat has offered different spaces to the Ministry of Migration and has guaranteed the "unity of action and the capacity for cooperation" that at other times has been demonstrated between both institutions.

Ximo Puig has also announced that next week the first "solidarity convoy" will be sent from the Valencian Community to Ukraine, for which material is being stockpiled in the three logistics centers set up for this purpose: the Valencia Fair, the City of the Light in Alicante and a space donated by the Diputación de Castellón.
