Morocco rejects being made a "scapegoat" in the political dispute in Spain and refuses to be singled out without evidence.

The Moroccan government issued a warning on Thursday rejecting its use as a "chivo expiatorio" (scapegoat) in domestic Spanish political disputes. Rabat specifically criticized being repeatedly pointed to without evidence regarding the mass entry of migrants into Ceuta.

The statement addresses tensions surrounding migration management at the Spanish-Moroccan border enclave and pushes back against political accusations originating within Spain's internal political landscape.
