Spanish King Felipe VI is set to visit Ceuta and Melilla, two Spanish cities in North Africa, as the nation prepares for a historic royal trip. His arrival is seen as a show of support for the cities, particularly following the events of July. The King and Queen Letizia are expected to visit both Ceuta and Melilla, although no confirmed date has been announced yet.
Reports suggest the visit should happen before October 12, Spain’s National Day. The King has been closely following developments in Ceuta and has spoken to the city's president, Juan Jesús Vivas, as well as receiving him at the Marivent Palace. The trip also comes as Morocco is set to hold elections on September 23, and the King's visit is seen as a way to show solidarity with Spain's enclaves after the elections.
While the King has made public references to the city since the summer, this will be his first official visit since becoming King in 2014.
