  "account": "More than a million people of Moroccan origin live in Spain, making it the largest foreign community, ahead of Colombia. And it is also an element of considerable importance for the economy of the Maghrebi country, many of whose citizens continue to try to emigrate to Europe, as shown by what has recently happened in Ceuta. Morocco (and its productive fabric, and its households) is highly dependent on remittances from its citizens abroad, the money that emigrants send to their relatives who have stayed there. According to data from the Bank of Spain, only those from Spain totaled almost 1.589 billion euros in 2025, which is equivalent to just over 1% of the neighboring country's GDP.",
  "summary": "The money sent from Spain represents over 1% of the North African country's GDP, while that from all emigration reaches 7.5%.",
