Why we need to welcome migrants

The crisis in Ceuta was initially a geopolitical crisis, not a migratory one, as Morocco took advantage of the Spanish government's weakness to allow almost 80,000 people to enter the city. The situation later turned into a migratory crisis, which remains unresolved. The Spanish government's response was criticized for being inadequate and slow, with the Prime Minister going on vacation for weeks instead of taking immediate action.

The crisis has been exploited by national populist movements to demonize migration, claiming it is the cause of all problems, which is a claim that is being disputed.
