The President of the United States, Donald Trump, has referred to Spain as a “ruined country,” in reference to the crisis in Ceuta, after stating that the massive crossing of migrants from Morocco “is sad to see.”

“Spain will be a ruined country. I have had my own problems with Spain because it does not behave very well with respect to NATO. It does not pay what it should pay,” said the U.S. leader in an interview with the British channel GB News, in which he refers to the Ceuta crisis.
“What is happening there is very sad to see,” Trump said about the situation in the autonomous city, coinciding with the debate on the issue that took place in the Congress of Deputies in which the Spanish Prime Minister, Pedro Sánchez, acknowledged his solitude in the face of this crisis and in which his closest partners pointed not only to the responsibility of Morocco but also that of the United States and Israel.
After pointing out that the United Kingdom has “its own problems,” Trump indicated that “they do not have thousands of people breaking into their country in that way.” “I have never seen anything like it,” the U.S. president concluded about the situation in Ceuta.

The head of the White House already referred to the crisis in Ceuta in the early days of the sudden crossing of about 80,000 migrants from Morocco when he attributed the situation to the “weak laws” and “poor management” of Pedro Sánchez’s government, after stating that the Spanish authorities “did not know what to do” in the face of the massive arrival of people.
Trump then referred to the interpretation that the Spanish Supreme Court ruling of July prohibits returning migrants who arrive by swimming, an issue that has precisely been used as an example by the Spanish Government of the hoaxes that promoted the massive crossing of migrants.
