I do not intend to make a deep socio-political analysis of the events of recent days in Ceuta. I'll just say what I think. It is estimated that around 8,000 people, around of them minors, have managed to enter Ceuta. It seems that the reason why Morocco has opened the doors of its borders, to facilitate the arrival of such a number of people, has been its "anger" because Spain has welcomed the leader of the Saharawi People in a hospital, seriously ill due to the Covid. In this regard, we must remember the resolution of the UN General Assembly of December 10, 2020, which, among other things, says: "This Assembly supports the negotiation process that began with Security Council resolution 1754 (2007) and continued with Council resolutions with a view to achieving a just, lasting and mutually acceptable political solution leading to the self-determination of the people of Western Sahara, and commends the Secretary-General and his Personal Envoy for Western Sahara for their efforts in this regard;" (emphasis is mine.
For me it may apparently be a good excuse for Morocco to try to justify said act, but perhaps there is something more to its claim, since we all know that its claims over Ceuta and Melilla and apparently even over Andalusia are historical. I am struck by the statements of many young Moroccans who do not want to return to Morocco because they say that there is nothing for them there. Others have preferred to return to their country, disappointed by what they have Australia Phone Number found upon arriving in Spain after so much effort. Their parents are out of work and for the young people there is nothing, only poverty and unemployment. This indicates, in my opinion, the abandonment in which the king of Morocco has left his people, while he lives in the midst of great luxury and riches, in a scandalous way: he has 12 palaces, 600 luxury cars, very expensive watches, he travels with an entourage of 300 people and an estimated fortune of around 5,000 million euros.
It seemed very serious to me that Mohamed VI used minors as bargaining chips to blackmail the Spanish Government, threatening the lives of thousands of his compatriots. In fact, some have died at sea trying to swim to Spain. Very serious and possibly denounceable in international bodies. On the other hand, although I understand that this great avalanche of people has caught the Spanish authorities off guard, the sudden returns that are occurring are not acceptable, without the guarantees provided by the laws, as many NGOs have denounced. Andalucía Acoge, CEAR, SOS Racism Federation, Iridia and Red Acoge have recalled that "collective or sudden expulsions are not permitted by law." Amnesty International and APDHA have also expressed themselves in the same sense.
