Page calls on Government to "wake up" over Ceuta crisis: "It could be the great lie of democracy after 11-M"

El Periódico Mediterráneo - General10 September 2026 at 16:59

The president of the Autonomous Community of Castilla-La Mancha, Emiliano García-Page, considered that the central Government must "wake up" in the face of the Ceuta crisis, warning that this situation could become "the second great lie of democracy," comparing it to the controversy surrounding the March 11, 2004 attacks in Madrid. García-Page made these statements in an interview with Onda Cero, collected by Europa Press.

The Castilian-Manchego president stated that the Ceuta crisis represents "one of the great management disasters" and asked the Executive to act urgently to prevent the situation from worsening and becoming a scandal of similar proportions to those that stain Spanish democratic history.

In his speech, García-Page referred directly to the March 11 attacks, in which a large part of the Spanish population was convinced about the authorship and the relationship with the Iraq war, something he considered to be "a textbook example" of how a crisis can turn into a great lie that affects citizens' trust in institutions.

See what is #FACT or #FAKE in Anthony Garotinho's interview with O GLOBO, Extra, Valor and CBN

The candidate for governor of Rio by Republicanos, Anthony Garotinho, was interviewed on Thursday by O GLOBO, Extra, Valor and CBN. In the 1h30 interview, he minimized his rejection and the arrests he suffered, besides blaming Michelle for the non-disclosure of the "night of the Astronauts" video. Garotinho also proposed a "BOPE 2.0" and the creation of subway line 3 with "super ferries", but dodged questions about support for Lula or his son Flavio Bolsonaro, leaving his presidential vote open. The series of interviews began with Douglas Ruas (PL), continued with William Siri (PSOL), and will be concluded by Eduardo Paes (PSD) on Friday.
