Robles attends Congress tomorrow to explain the crisis in Ceuta with a focus on the CNI and Morocco's role
Defense Minister Margarita Robles will appear this Tuesday before the Defense Committee of Congress to report on the crisis triggered in Ceuta by the massive entry of immigrants from Morocco, with all eyes on whether the National Intelligence Center (CNI) had information on the jump and Morocco's role.
Spanish Defence Minister Margarita Robles is to appear before the Congress Defence Commission to discuss the recent migrant crisis in Ceuta. She is the first of eight government members to do so this week. Robles previously stated that Morocco should not "touch" Ceuta and Melilla, and criticised Rabat's actions, differing from the official government stance.
The minister will face questions on the role of the National Intelligence Centre and the crisis's impact on military personnel deployed in Ceuta. Over 20 soldiers have contracted scabies and there are complaints about poor living conditions and pay.
