Ceuta Day was marked by demonstrations called by the Spanish right and far-right. The protests arose in the context of the migration crisis in the Spanish enclave on African territory.
The Spanish opposition leader pointed responsibilities both to Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez and to Morocco for the mass entry of migrants into Ceuta. These accusations were directed directly at the two political actors.
However, information not included in the report prepared by the Spanish police on last month's incidents contradicts some of the statements made by the opposition leader. The police report does not support the accusations directed at Sánchez and Morocco.
The situation in Ceuta continues to generate political tension in Spain, with the right-wing and far-right parties taking advantage of the migration crisis to criticize Sánchez's government.
