Albares garantiza la integridad de Schengen y asegura que ningún migrante ha llegado a la Península
El ministro de Exteriores ha sentenciado que “hasta la última persona que ha entrado irregularmente en España volverá a Marruecos”, ya que esa es la “voluntad expresa” de Rabat
José Manuel Albares, the Spanish Minister of Foreign Affairs, has assured the integrity of the Schengen zone and confirmed that no migrant has arrived on the Spanish Peninsula. During a meeting in Ceuta with the President of the Autonomous City, Juan Jesús Vivas, Albares stated that all irregularly entered individuals will be returned to Morocco.
He echoed the expressed will of Morocco, which had demanded the return of its minors in Spain on Monday, disregarding the established routes for their return. This is the first time a foreign affairs minister has visited Ceuta, a Spanish enclave, to address concerns following the mass entry of over 70,000 people from Morocco on July 30 and 31.
Albares described the Ceuta-Melilla border as the most complex in Spain and Europe, and assured that the integrity of the Schengen space is fully guaranteed in both Ceuta and Melilla. His remarks come a week after the EU Interior Ministers' meeting, where Spain sought solidarity from its European partners in dealing with the Ceuta crisis.
The minister also wanted to send a message of reassurance to the Peninsula and other European countries: "No one has left the city towards the Peninsula, and cannot."
