Spanish term or phrase: el ansia diplomática española
Sin duda, existen factores socioeconómicos de notable impacto a la hora de motivar la salida de los nacionales de los países mencionados; no obstante, conviene mencionar que la exportación de la agenda de control a países africanos, que juegan cada vez más un doble papel como guardianes y emisores de población, ha constituido también un importante factor a la hora de definir las estrategias de los candidatos seleccionados que, achicados por las cada vez mayores posibilidades de repatriación, se ven abocados a emigrar, ocultando su identidad, al tiempo que se favorece que aquellos todavía no afectados por el ansia diplomática española a la hora de firmar acuerdos bilaterales de readmisión, se sumen a la emigración hacia el continente europeo.
