Sources from the Executive have reported on this investigation by Morocco, specifying that it was communicated by the Moroccan Minister of Foreign Affairs, Naser Bourita, to his Spanish counterpart, José Manuel Albares.
The Executive has maintained that there is no evidence that Morocco was behind this mass entry into Ceuta, and this was reiterated this Thursday by the Prime Minister, Pedro Sánchez, in his appearance before the plenary session of the Congress. However, he specified that if the Government had “solid” evidence, it would act “accordingly, with full force, as the situation demands.”
The cited sources have emphasized that these words do not imply a change of attitude, as they stress that it has always been assured that no one can be held responsible for what happened because there is no evidence for it.

Sánchez revealed in his appearance that on August 21 the Government summoned the Moroccan ambassador to Spain following statements by the Moroccan Ministers of Justice, Abdellatif Ouahbi, and Islamic Affairs, Ahmed Toufiq, who in recent weeks have claimed sovereignty or the liberation of Ceuta and Melilla.
Regarding the fact that this summons was not reported at the time, the Government emphasizes that bilateral relations, especially in a matter like this, require prudence.
