#BREAKING | ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ธ ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ โ€” Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sรกnchez has formally written to EU institutions in Brussels, criticizing the response of some member states to the recent mass migrant influx into Ceuta and calling for an emergency meeting of the blocโ€™s interior ministers.

The move follows the entry of nearly 50,000 illegal migrants into the Spanish North African enclave over roughly 48 hours, most of whom have since returned to Morocco. Several EU countries had voiced sharp criticism of Spainโ€™s border management and moved to tighten controls.

โ€”๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฆ/๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ธ Why Morocco claims Ceuta and Melilla โ€” and why Spain rejects the claim

Morocco considers Ceuta and Melilla remnants of European colonial rule on African territory. Rabat argues that their geographical location on the Moroccan coast, their historical links to North Africa and the principle of territorial integrity support their eventual incorporation into Morocco. Since gaining independence in 1956, Morocco has periodically raised the issue internationally and in 1975 formally asked the UN decolonisation committee to classify the cities and other Spanish-held territories as non-self-governing territories.

Spain maintains that Ceuta and Melilla are not colonies but integral parts of the Spanish state, with the same constitutional status as its other autonomous territories. Madrid stresses that Spanish sovereignty predates the establishment of modern Morocco: Portugal captured Ceuta in 1415, with the city later becoming Spanish, while Melilla came under Spanish control in 1497. Spain also points to subsequent treaties, continuous administration and the political rights and Spanish citizenship of the citiesโ€™ inhabitants.

The United Nations does not currently include Ceuta or Melilla on its list of non-self-governing territories, meaning they are not formally treated by the UN as territories awaiting decolonisation. Morocco nevertheless continues to view the dispute through an anti-colonial and territorial-integrity framework, while Spain regards its sovereignty as legally established and non-negotiable.
