The migration crisis in the North African Spanish city of Ceuta triggered a sharp political conflict in the European Parliament. Parliament passed a resolution that, for the first time, officially labels the abuse of migration as an instrument of hybrid warfare. The document also proposes freezing further measures, though the available information does not specify their exact scope. ekonomickydenik.cz ↗
The situation in Ceuta became the subject of domestic political debate in Spain. Former Prime Minister José María Aznar accused Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez of betrayal and called for the deployment of the army in Ceuta. Aznar also warned that the crisis would worsen with each passing day, arguing that Spain was giving in to external pressure. El Mundo ↗
Alberto Núñez Feijóo, leader of the People's Party, said during a visit to Melilla that Ceuta is a "powder keg." He also criticized the state in which, in his words, the city finds itself, claiming that Ceuta is not a free city today. The opposition's political statements have increased pressure on the Spanish government at a time when the migration issue is also being addressed at the European level.
The adopted European Parliament resolution could influence the European Union's further response to the use of migration flows in political disputes. Further developments will depend on the next steps taken by the Spanish government, European institutions, and the situation on the ground in Ceuta.
