Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez has condemned the response of several European governments to the recent influx of migrants into Ceuta, calling their reaction “selfish, polarizing, and illegal.” Sánchez issued a letter criticizing nations like Italy and Germany, alongside 20 others, for rebuking Spain’s decision to regularize the status of migrants who crossed the border. He argues the EU cannot afford such a divisive approach to migration challenges. The crisis in Ceuta involved a significant number of migrants reaching the Spanish enclave from Morocco. Sánchez has urgently requested a meeting of the European Union to address the situation and seek a unified response. He asserts a collaborative and humane approach is essential, contrasting it with what he deems the counterproductive stance of some member states. The disagreement highlights tensions within the EU regarding migration policy and border control.
