Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez defended Morocco and denounced the disinformation spread by Russia and Israel during an interview given this Monday to radio station Cadena Ser. The interview takes place days before Sánchez is due to appear before Congress to provide explanations about the massive influx of migrants into Ceuta.
In the interview, Sánchez addressed the migration crisis that resulted in the arrival of thousands of migrants to the Spanish city of Ceuta, a Spanish enclave in northern Africa. The prime minister defended Morocco's position on this matter, highlighting the importance of relations between the two countries.
Sánchez accused Russia and Israel of spreading disinformation about the situation in Ceuta, suggesting that these powers had spread false narratives about the events. This denunciation comes in the broader context of international tensions.
The Spanish prime minister will have to account before the Congress of Deputies, where he will be questioned about how the government handled the migration crisis and the measures taken to manage the situation at the border.
