La crisis sin resolver de Ceuta aterriza en un Congreso que calienta para elecciones

Siete ministros ofrecerán el primer relato ordenado con los datos disponibles y el PP denunciará que el Ejecutivo elude el Senado y prefiere la Cámara Baja porque la tiene controlada

La crisis sin resolver de Ceuta aterriza en un Congreso que calienta para elecciones

The unresolved Ceuta crisis has landed in a Congress that is gearing up for elections. The government will use the Chamber this week to present, through the appearance of seven ministers, the first organized account with all available and verified data about the origin and current situation of the unresolved Ceuta crisis, and to debunk a large number of rumors.

This will occur 26 days after a massive influx of around 80,000 immigrants into the autonomous city. The executive does not currently have a single version of why that massive entry occurred, although it leans towards an effect generated by mafias, amplified on social media and promoted from countries that don't necessarily have to be just Morocco.

The theoretical stance that all the immigrants that arrived will return to the Alawite kingdom clashes with legal obstacles, political differences, and the kingdom's reluctance to accommodate them all. Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez ruled out any call to Alberto Núñez Feijóo, due to their strained relationship and how the opposition leader reacted in the early hours after the crisis to exploit it politically ahead of a long electoral year.
