Ceuta, la crisis imposible
El Gobierno y la ciudad jugaron durante días al gato y el ratón con los emplazamientos para inmigrantes. El ambiente de rechazo a los extranjeros, que no era tan fuerte en 2021, complica la gestión. El Ejecutivo confía en que Marruecos ahora sí frenará cualquier intento como hizo el 15
Three weeks have passed since an estimated 80,000 migrants arrived in Ceuta, overwhelming the Spanish autonomous city and disrupting daily life for its 83,600 residents. Normalcy remains elusive, and accusations have been exchanged between the central government and Ceuta's administration (of the People's Party) regarding crisis management. However, there are also criticisms within the Socialists' Party (PSOE).
Two PSOE deputies from Ceuta have distanced themselves from the Executive and demand action, insisting that the Minister of the Interior, Fernando Grande-Marlaska, must fulfill his promises. During his visit to Ceuta, Grande-Marlaska stated that no migrants would remain in the city. Melchor León (34 years old, from Ceuta) serves as the first vice president of the Ceuta Assembly and is one of the PSOE members who accuses the Pedro Sánchez government of not addressing the situation with the necessary urgency.
In a telephone interview with EL PAÍS, he describes the event as "an invasion by Morocco" and alleges that he has received threats due to his criticisms of the Executive.
