King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia visited the Spanish enclave of Ceuta on October 13th, marking the first royal visit in nearly two decades. The visit occurred just over two months after a significant migration crisis impacted the region. During his trip, the King delivered a highly anticipated speech to local representatives and residents of Ceuta. The core message of his address centered on the non-negotiable nature of Spain’s territorial integrity. The royal couple’s presence was keenly observed in Rabat, which continues to lay claim to the territory of Ceuta. This visit signals Spain’s firm stance regarding sovereignty over the enclave following recent tensions.
