Spanish Defence Minister Margarita Robles will not appear before the Senate on May 18th to address the recent crisis involving the influx of migrants into Ceuta. Initially, the PP (Popular Party) announced Robles had committed to testify. However, Robles has now requested a postponement, stating she requires additional time to adequately prepare her intervention. The decision comes amid intense political scrutiny surrounding the handling of the border situation with Morocco. Opposition parties have demanded clarity on the government’s response to the arrival of thousands of migrants. The postponement is likely to fuel further debate and criticism regarding transparency and accountability. No new date for Robles’ testimony has been announced.
