Spain Condemns 'Selfish' Response of EU Leaders to Ceuta Migrant Crisis as Death Toll Rises The migrant crisis unfolding in Spain's enclave of Ceuta has exposed a deep seated fault line within the European Union: the inability of member states to present a united front on a critical issue.
The extraordinary scenes that played out earlier this week, with tens of thousands of migrants attempting to cross into Ceuta from Morocco, have left a rising death toll and a widening sense of division among EU leaders.
At its core, the crisis is not just about external borders or the Schengen area; it's about the fundamental values that underpin European integration: solidarity, empathy, and respect for the rule of law.
