The discussion featured Delano D\u2019Souza and Alana Moceri, an International Relations Professor at IE School of Politics, Economics and Global Affairs.<\/p>\n<p>Ceuta is portrayed as more than a migration crisis. Control of the border exposes geopolitical leverage, placing the issue within Spain\u2019s relationship with Morocco while also making it a central element of political debate at home.<\/p>\n<p>S\u00e1nchez faces opponents who can frame migration in existential terms. Spain\u2019s far right has amplified rhetoric describing the situation as an \u201cinvasion,\u201d turning the crossings into a weapon in the country\u2019s domestic political contest.<\/p>\n<p>The border has also become a battleground for competing narratives and disinformation. In that context, the situation at Ceuta brings together migration, international relations and political messaging, with the management of the border carrying consequences beyond the immediate crossings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Arabic version: \u0639\u0645\u0644\u064a\u0627\u062a \u0627\u0644\u0639\u0628\u0648\u0631 \u0641\u064a \u0633\u0628\u062a\u0629 \u062a\u0633\u0644\u0637 \u0627\u0644\u0636\u0648\u0621 \u0639\u0644\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u062a\u0648\u062a\u0631\u0627\u062a \u0628\u064a\u0646 \u0625\u0633\u0628\u0627\u0646\u064a\u0627 \u0648\u0627\u0644\u0645\u063a\u0631\u0628 According to France 24, migrant&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":215519,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[129],"tags":[78652,1431,20770,304,305],"class_list":["post-215518","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-pedro-sanchez","tag-ceuta","tag-migration","tag-morocco","tag-pedro-sanchez","tag-spain"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@people\/117215322697668718","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/215518","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=215518"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/215518\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/215519"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=215518"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=215518"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=215518"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
