A large influx of migrants stormed a Spanish exclave, Ceuta, located in North Africa. This event spurred political criticism directed at Spain’s Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez.
The White House accused Spain of showing weakness on immigration issues. The statement intensified the political discourse both within Europe and the United States.
Critics from Spain, as well as right-wing voices in Germany, Italy, and France, joined in condemning Sánchez, using the incident to challenge Europe’s liberal policies.
Antonio Sempere of AP captured migrants attempting to enter Ceuta from Morocco on Thursday, adding visuals to the growing narrative of political unrest around the Spanish government’s handling of immigration.
