The Minister of Territorial Policy, Ángel Víctor Torres, has insisted that no "conjectures" be made about the police report that would point to a possible implication of Morocco in the massive entry of migrants recorded at the end of July in Ceuta, until all the details of the document are precisely known.
In an interview on "RNE", reported by Europa Press, Torres highlighted that the Minister of the Interior, Fernando Grande-Marlaska, reacted "immediately" as soon as he learned through the press of the existence of that report, requesting the Director General of the Police, Francisco Pardo, to detail the content of the document that the National Center for Immigration and Borders (CENIF) would have sent to the judge of the National Court, María Tardón, responsible for the investigation of the events.
The head of Territorial Policy has emphasized that, for the moment, it is unknown "whether it is a particular report from an agent, if that report was requested by whom, and therefore at this moment we are in a situation where everything needs to be clarified, because that is what the citizens also deserve." For this reason, he stressed that "if we want to speak with rigor, we undoubtedly need to have that report on the table."
Asked whether, in the event that what was reported by "El Español" about Moroccan agents orchestrating the entry of more than 70,000 migrants in Ceuta is confirmed, the Government would take measures, Torres reiterated that "talking about it now is making conjectures." "Let's wait for that report to be available and then with absolute transparency we will all know what that report says," he pointed out.
Regarding the possibility of demanding explanations from Morocco, the minister stated that if the report confirms what has been published, "logically there would be a responsibility, and the Spanish Government has never dismissed it, on the contrary, it has been absolutely clear," recalling that the Government has firmly defended the Spanish identity of Ceuta and Melilla against the claims made by Moroccan ministers.
