EC Chief proposes more aid to Morocco to curb border crossings
The President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, suggested increasing the support provided by the European Union to Morocco to help prevent the repeated mass crossings of around 50,000 migrants into the Spanish enclave of Ceuta last week. She confirmed that Morocco is considered a strategic partner in efforts to combat human trafficking and illegal migration, with plans to strengthen early warning systems and enhance technical and financial support. She pointed out that the wave of migration was driven by misinformation on social media and misinterpretations of a Spanish court judgment, and that most of the migrants returned to Moroccan territory after their attempted crossings.
