Sánchez se enroca en exculpar a Marruecos frente a la crítica unánime del Congreso

Pedro Sánchez, the Spanish Prime Minister, defended Morocco's involvement in the Ceuta crisis during his testimony before the Congress, despite the unanimous criticism from members. He denied receiving any extraordinary alerts or warnings before the invasion of Ceuta by 70,000 to 80,000 people, emphasizing that the reports provided were routine and did not preview the scale or probability of the event.

Despite the police report to the National Audit Court judge María Tardánc, Sánchez maintained his exonerating story of Morocco, insisting there is no evidence that Moroccan authorities planned the invasion. The European Commission, diplomatic services, and international organizations have also not provided any solid evidence supporting Morocco's involvement.

Sánchez continues to support Morocco's role as an essential partner in border control, stating that without their coordination, it would have been impossible and illegal for 63,000 of the invaders to return to Morocco within three days. The Spanish government has also refused to accept the pro-separatist statements made by some Moroccan ministers.
