Crisis in Ceuta and political news, live | Calm at the borders of Ceuta and Melilla on a day of alert due to the threat of a new massive jump
Albares ensures that Morocco is going to collaborate to prevent a new entry this Wednesday | The management of the crisis once again focuses the debates in Congress
This Wednesday morning, the situation at the Ceuta and Melilla borders is calm. September 23rd has been a significant date for Spanish security forces, as legislative elections in Morocco were taking place. The Spanish government has strengthened police presence along the border zones, deploying several buses from the National Police and vehicles from the Civil Guard at the Tarajal pier.
Foreign Affairs Minister José Manuel Albares assured that Morocco is collaborating with Spain to prevent another massive influx of migrants into Ceuta and Melilla. He said on Cadena SER, "They will collaborate, as on August 15, to ensure such a jump cannot occur in Ceuta or Melilla." The crisis management in Ceuta once again dominates debates in the plenary session of the Congress with a new offensive from the PP and Vox, proposing up to seven questions and two interrogations.
It will be a control session of the government where the President, Pedro Sánchez, will not be present, as he attends the UN General Assembly in New York.
