Vivas fears that the Government does not want to "annoy Morocco" in the face of "a hypothetical plan conceived to strike at Ceuta until its definitive fall."

Juan Jesús Vivas, President of the autonomous city of Ceuta, has publicly criticized the Spanish central government for its perceived inaction regarding the recent migration crisis. Following an extraordinary Council of Government meeting, Vivas expressed concern over the administration's lack of response to the entry of approximately 70,000 individuals from Morocco on July 30 and 31. He has signaled his intention to involve the judiciary to address the situation, citing a lack of official support for the city.
