Opposition leader Alberto Núñez Feijóo demanded exceptional constitutional instruments to restore order in Ceuta, including declaring the enclave a national security interest, after some 50,000 migrants crossed from Morocco last week. Speaking from Ceuta on Friday, the Popular Party chief called the influx a "premeditated occupation" of Spanish territory and accused the government of prior knowledge, citing state strategic documents.
Feijóo urged Madrid to accept Frontex rapid-intervention units and called for immediate parliamentary debate on border-return reforms. He dismissed the government's planned buoy barrier as "ridiculous" and demanded Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez appear before Congress. Feijóo has contacted roughly 20 European leaders and U.S. Under Secretary of State Christopher Landau about the crisis.
Meanwhile, the far-right Vox party suspended its international agenda and demanded appearances by Spain's intelligence chief and foreign minister.
