The Spanish Popular Party (PP) has no reason to diminish its political offensive against Pedro Sánchez's Government over the Ceuta crisis. The populares remain firm in their strategy after the publication by the Executive of a series of documents until now secret about what happened before and after the migratory avalanche in the autonomous city at the end of July.
The documents revealed by the Government came to confirm the PP's position in this political battle. The opposition parties consider that the warnings from CNI (Centro Nacional de Inteligência) were not adequately heeded, which worsened the situation during the migratory crisis.
The spokesperson for the PP's Steering Committee, Borja Sémper, expressed the party's "astonishment" at what he considers a "vexation" caused by the Executive. Sémper harshly criticized the fact that the Government is "sowing" distrust about the CNI, the Spanish intelligence service.
In statements to Radio Nacional, the Donostian leader highlighted that the international press coverage on that Thursday reflected what he described as a "vexation" and distrust about the Spanish intelligence service, which he considered to be provoked and projected by the Government itself. The PP argues that the Executive's management of the crisis harmed Spain's international image.
