On August 24, former European Union High Representative Josep Borrell criticized the European response to the situation in Ceuta, describing the reaction as hysterical, disproportionate, and absurd. Speaking in Santander, Borrell argued that the situation required a more measured approach rather than the intense alarmism exhibited by European institutions.
His remarks highlight a perceived disconnect between the severity of the events in the Spanish enclave and the subsequent political reaction from the European Union. By characterizing the response as irrational, Borrell suggests that the bloc failed to address the matter with the necessary diplomatic composure.
