Video of the Day: Spanish government ad on immigration

Below is a report from CNN+ on an ad campaign in Senegal by Spain’s government in order to deter illegal immigration. The commercials’’ approach is to convince northern Africans from undergoing the often-deadly twelve day voyage to the Canary Islands.

The ad campaign also aims to emphasize the Spanish government’s renewed diplomatic approach to illegal immigration. Since 2005, Spain has signed cooperation and repatriation agreements with several African countries.
