España mantendrá intacta su estrategia con Marruecos pese a las críticas por la crisis de Ceuta

The Spanish government is maintaining its strategy with Morocco despite criticism over the Ceuta migrant crisis and concerns about Morocco's role. Officials are still gathering information about the 80,000 migrants who crossed into Ceuta and the influence of Morocco during the crisis. Despite the growing perception that Rabat turned a blind eye in critical moments, there are no indications of a shift in Spain-Morocco relations in La Moncloa or the relevant ministries.

Internal and external criticisms, mainly from Europe, have led to varying degrees of harshness but the government remains steadfast in its approach. No change in strategy or tone is anticipated, especially now that there are still thousands of migrants in Ceuta who need to return to Morocco. The border situation has been intense this weekend, with Spain committed to preserving the key aspects of its relationship with Morocco, its approach to migration policy, and the overall tone of its foreign policy "with its own identity" even in the face of setbacks caused by Ceuta and the sharp reaction from the EU in the early stages, causing some irritation in several capitals.
