Morocco Uses Migration to Control Western Sahara
The article highlights that the crisis of mass crossings into Spanish Ceuta is not merely an immigration issue but part of a broader maneuver by the Moroccan regime aimed at pressuring Spain and the European Union to agree to negotiations over the maritime waters of Western Sahara. Morocco seeks to use the tension in Ceuta and Melilla to open up the issue of maritime disputes and to exploit the region’s natural resources—particularly Trobik Mountain, which is rich in strategic minerals such as tellurium and rare earth elements. The report also points to the presence of international companies, including British, American, and Israeli firms, operating in oil and gas exploration off the coast of Western Sahara. This serves to strengthen economic interests and exert geopolitical pressure amid international legal complications that hinder the legitimate exploitation of these resources.
