El presidente de Ceuta denuncia la "inacción" del Estado: la ciudad "está en peligro"

The president of Ceuta has denounced the inaction of the State, claiming the city is in danger. An extraordinary Government Council meeting revealed that Ceuta is under threat following an incident that compromised Spain's territorial integrity. The president emphasized that the State should deploy all necessary resources to restore normalcy within 30 days.

However, the president lamented that this has not yet occurred, despite having sufficient capabilities to achieve this. Ceuta's president accused the government of glossing over the reality, stating that within 48 hours, Ceuta would return to normalcy, and only 2,500 people would remain out of the 30,000 who entered during the crisis.

The president expressed concern that the current lack of action could pave the way for a hypothetical plan to gradually eliminate Ceuta. He stressed that the government has sufficient resources to restore normalcy within 30 days if there is political will. The president also called for the mobilization of 50 Foreign Affairs officials to process the return or expulsion of the adults still present in the city, estimating that this could handle 750 cases daily, 3,750 weekly, and 15,000 monthly.

The president concluded by asserting that the gravity of the situation justifies the extraordinary deployment of resources and demanded a response from the State commensurate with the severity of the situation.
