Madrid (Spain), 1 Aug. (LaPresse) – Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez has sent a letter to the President of the European Council, António Costa, to the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, and the Irish Presidency, expressing “serious concern regarding the recent reactions of certain European governments following the incident at the European Union’s external border in Ceuta” and calling for an urgent extraordinary video conference of interior ministers to be convened. The Prime Minister has complained to the EU about the reaction of the Italian government and other European governments regarding the crisis in Ceuta. “The reaction of European governments in recent hours has been rather uneven. Most have shown us their support and solidarity, offering assistance. Others, however, have chosen to attack Spain and call for its temporary exclusion from the Schengen area,” denounced the Socialist leader.
