Spain’s Migration Crisis Tests EU Unity | Europe News

Spain’s border crisis with Morocco has ignited a firestorm across the EU, as thousands crossed into Ceuta sparking deadly chaos and forcing a bitter debate over responsibility. Italy and France pushed to temporarily strip Spain of Schengen access, blaming its migration policies for fueling dangerous crossings — but Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez fiercely defended his nation, calling the move selfish and unlawful, while highlighting Spain’s efforts to regularize over a million undocumented migrants. In a powerful show of solidarity, Commission President Ursula von der Leyen backed Spain, applauding its swift response in repatriating migrants and preventing further influxes into Europe. She framed the crisis as a wake-up call for the EU, urging stronger border controls, deeper cooperation with Morocco, and dismantling smuggling networks — with an emergency summit of interior ministers set to tackle these urgent challenges.
