Ceuta crisis: 22 EU leaders gang up against Spain’s Sánchez over his migration policy

Twenty-two EU leaders criticized Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez's migration policies, arguing they undermine EU border security. They accused his migrant regularization scheme of creating a 'pull factor' that contributed to a migrant influx in Ceuta, though Spain denied the policy caused the crisis. The leaders called for EU-level cooperation to combat 'illegal migration' and considered reinforcing border controls.
