PP's Strong Stance on Sovereignty and Justice
In a robust reply to Morocco's recent accusations, which labeled the Spanish People's Party (PP) as responsible for the invasion of Ceuta—whether through negligence or initiative—the party, led by Alberto Núñez Feijóo, has issued a powerful statement emphasizing that "nothing is above the defense of Spain." The PP's communication explicitly warns the Moroccan government and the administration of Pedro Sánchez, asserting that recent events represent a hybrid attack that manipulates irregular immigration. Furthermore, the PP demands utmost respect for Spanish institutions and the ongoing judicial investigations within the nation.
The party highlights that it is solely the Spanish judiciary's responsibility, in exercising its independence and national sovereignty, to determine the facts, assess the evidence, and establish any necessary accountability. They caution that no internal or external pronouncement should interfere with, condition, or delegitimize this legal process. The PP firmly believes that the incidents in Ceuta necessitate a thorough and immediate evaluation, requiring loyal and transparent actions from all parties involved, along with verifiable guarantees that similar incidents will not occur in the future. They reiterate that Morocco bears responsibility for these developments, whether through action or failure to act.
Unanswered Questions and Diplomatic Relations
In their statement, the PP raises pressing questions directed at Morocco that remain unanswered: "Why has the return of individuals who entered irregularly not been executed, despite the Moroccan government's official commitment to accept them? And why are minors being kept away from their families, despite Morocco's urgent request for their return?" These inquiries underscore the complexities surrounding the immigration crisis and the responsibilities of both nations.
Furthermore, the PP asserts that the Spanish government must address the reasons preventing the resolution of this crisis if it possesses the means to do so. The communication concludes with a call for fostering good relations between Spain and Morocco, based on non-negotiable principles of mutual respect, institutional loyalty, transparency, reciprocity, and full respect for the sovereignty of both states. The PP firmly reinforces that Ceuta and Melilla are an integral part of Spain.
