"Completing the territorial unit". Government and opposition parties claim Ceuta and Melilla in the Moroccan Parliament

Moroccan political parties, both in government and opposition, have asserted the country's sovereignty over the Spanish cities of Ceuta and Melilla during a parliamentary debate. The nationalist Istiqlal party emphasized that partnerships with Spain should not compromise Morocco's territorial integrity. The ruling Authenticity and Modernity Party called for continued diplomatic efforts to reclaim these territories, advocating for a responsible national vision based on historical legitimacy and peaceful dialogue. The opposition Justice and Development Party condemned recent Spanish actions and reaffirmed that Ceuta and Melilla are Moroccan territories. These statements reflect ongoing tensions following a migrant crisis in July.
