Indeed. That the far right jumped on this suspiciously quick is one thing, but so many others who could not withstand the temptation to do the same, including supporting absurd calls to suspend Spain from Schengen, is very worrying.
Il a évidemment raison. La manière dont certains pays se sont précipités pour « lâcher » l’Espagne sans connaître les tenants et les aboutissants de l’affaire est indécente et rétrospectivement stupide.
This appears to be a diplomatic disaster for Giorgia Meloni.
Under pressure from a far-right party led by a former General, she hastily suspended Schengen with Spain.
Meanwhile Spain had returned almost all 60,000 people from Ceuta to Morocco and assured that none had travelled to mainland Europe.
Furthermore Italy admits more illegal migrants than Spain annually.
Consequently, if Italy faces another large migrant crisis in the future, fewer EU countries may be willing to help.
Meloni ne suspend pas Schengen à cause de Sánchez, mais à cause de Vannacci, son nouveau rival d’extrême droite. Quand Rome annonçait des contrôles, 48 300 des 50 000 personnes entrées à Ceuta étaient déjà reparties vers le Maroc. Des sondages, pas des faits #populistesaupouvoir
I express my solidarity with Spain in the current situation of illegal migration in Ceuta.
While third-country nationals in Ceuta do not enjoy free movement to mainland Spain or the rest of the Schengen area, Spain’s firm response, including ongoing accelerated returns, demonstrates our determination to protect our external borders, combat illegal migration, and dismantle criminal smuggling networks.
I welcome Spain’s close cooperation with Morocco in addressing this shared challenge and ensuring swift returns.
We will remain in close contact with the Spanish authorities in the coming days.
@GiorgiaMeloni, we stood by you when Trump tried to humiliate you.
Today, Spain managed to return to Morocco more than 48,000 of the nearly 50,000 people who entered Ceuta yesterday.
Your government has never managed anything remotely comparable,and never will.
When European solidarity is at stake, you behave like fascists.
Italy is our friend. But we will never like Mussolini nostalgists in government.
Far right is spreading disinformation on Spain & migration.
1. Ceuta and Melilla have a special regime involving double external border checks: once on entry from Morocco, and once again when travelling on to the Spanish mainland.
Anyone who climbs over the fence at Ceuta is not within the European area of free movement, but faces a further border check.
Even ETIAS is checked when leaving the exclaves.

Este mensaje es impropio del Ministro de Exteriores de un país socio y amigo del que esperamos solidaridad europea y no demagogia partidista. Los hechos de hoy tienen relación con una sentencia, nada que ver con lo que dice el tuit. He convocado mañana al Embajador de Italia.
Italy’s position is unworthy of a European partner. When migration is weaponised, Europe answers with solidarity, not selfishness.
After 700,000+ arrivals from Libya, Italy received European support, not lectures. Solidarity is not a one-way street.
El Gobierno de España está volcado en dar una respuesta inmediata a la situación en Ceuta.
Estamos movilizando todos los recursos necesarios, trabajando con las autoridades marroquíes e internacionales, y preparando las medidas necesarias para recuperar la normalidad lo antes posible. Así se lo acabo de transmitir al presidente @JuanVivasLara.
Es el momento de construir soluciones, con responsabilidad y cooperación.
Mayor Zohran Mamdani just did something his critics swore a socialist would never do: cut fines, fees, permits, and red tape for small businesses.
More than 50 reforms will make it easier for restaurants, bodegas, barbershops, retailers, and drivers to operate—including killing the absurd second permit restaurants need just to serve ice cream.
Less bureaucracy. Lower costs. More time running the business.
That is what competent government looks like.
Whoever wrote these Mamdani remarks had a lot of fun.
And whoever came up with these pro small business, anti (bad) regulation policies, delivered by a socialist mayor, is smart.
Folks can scream about evil Mamdani on this site, but in real life he’s showing us why he’s winning
The Electrification Action Plan is a step towards delivering affordable energy, strengthening strategic autonomy, reducing dependence on imported fossil fuels and reinforcing competitiveness.
