The Spanish Government denies tensions with the Royal Household and announced it will begin to organize the King's visits to Ceuta and Melilla, although these are not expected to take place immediately. Pedro Sánchez had already announced this decision on Monday.
With this initiative, the Executive balances its appeasement towards Morocco, by exempting the country from responsibility in the migration crisis, with the claim of Spanish sovereignty over the two autonomous cities.
Sources from Moncloa ensure that Ceuta and Melilla are Spanish territory and that the country is a sovereign territory, thus responding to a hypothetical negative reaction from Rabat to these visits.
