European People’s Party (EPP) leader Manfred Weber warns Morocco of “obvious consequences” in response to the Ceuta border crisis. He calls on Morocco to take back all irregular migrants who entered the Spanish exclave in July, saying the situation requires full cooperation.

Weber also criticizes Spain’s approach, targeting Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez’s handling of the crisis during a visit to Ceuta. The outlet reports Weber’s comments as part of broader political scrutiny over how Spain manages irregular migration flows and border incidents at the EU’s external frontier.

While the focus in the reporting is on Weber’s demands and his criticism of Spain’s government, both elements are tied to the July entries and the unresolved question of responsibility for migrants and next steps following the crisis at the border of Ceuta.
