Spain rejects Rabat on Melilla and Ceuta
The Spanish government has informed Morocco of its unequivocal rejection of any challenge to the status of the cities of Ceuta and Melilla, affirming that they are part of Spanish sovereignty and territorial integrity, in accordance with the official stance of European countries. Spain responded to statements made by Moroccan Minister of Justice, Abdul Latif Halaoui, who considers the two cities as a historic and geographic right of Morocco and called for dialogue regarding their future, by firmly stating that Ceuta and Melilla are Spanish territories and members of the European Union, and rejected any future discussion about them. This response represents an official escalation reflecting the sensitivity of the issue, which has intensified following Halaoui's remarks and proposed dialogue initiatives, and reaffirms Spain’s firm stance on its full sovereignty over the two cities.
