Government Sánchez defends the pact with Morocco in Ceuta: "The crisis had to be resolved and the agreement is balanced"
Letter to Morocco The letter from Pedro Sánchez to Mohamed VI does not mention Ceuta and Melilla and makes numerous errors
"When you go to
Rabat
, remember that you do not have the support of this House."
The first political debate on the
swerve
of the Government on the new framework of relations with Morocco has resulted in an absolute slap on the part of the parliamentary groups to the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the management of Pedro Sánchez regarding the historic turnaround
over the Sahara.
Several political parties, among them the investiture partners of the Executive, have criticized the "little transparency" of the maneuver and the "triple crisis" -with the
Polisario Front
, with Algeria and at an internal political level- that it has caused.
Minister José Manuel Albares has appeared this Wednesday in the Foreign Affairs Commission in the Congress of Deputies.
There, he has announced that he will visit Rabat on Friday, April 1 as part of the "new stage" in relations between Spain and Morocco.
The head of the Spanish Diplomacy will meet with his Moroccan counterpart with the aim of achieving the "complete normalization" of movement between the two countries and will work to re-establish full connection between Spain and Morocco, including the sea route and the
operation Crossing the Strait
.
Albares' visit will also serve to "prepare" a future trip by the Prime Minister, Pedro Sánchez, to Rabat.
Some visits that even the parliamentary groups have assured that, if they had to vote in Congress, they would reject.
"They are alone, they do not have the support of Congress or their government team. Who do they have?", ERC deputy
Marta Rosique
has launched .
"Here you come before, not after. Who should be here is the president," defended the PNV spokesman, Aitor Esteban, as each and every one of the PSOE's partners in the Government has recalled.
"They are not telling us things as they are", he pointed out to the minister, to whom he has warned about the reliability of Morocco: "It is so reliable that he has leaked the letter to them as a throwing weapon".
Criticism has come from absolutely all the Government's allies in the investiture bloc.
On behalf of EH Bildu,
Jon Iñárritu
has accused Pedro Sánchez of "selling out the Saharawi people" and has wondered why Albares did not notify the parliamentary commission on this occasion, when he usually does.
"What happened?"
The same question has been asked
by Mariona Illamona
, a JxCat parliamentarian, who has reported that the minister communicated various issues about Ukraine to the deputies, but about Morocco and the Sahara, which is a "sensitive" issue, Albares hid information from all the parties with a presence in the Chamber.
"We are all representatives of the citizens, like it or not," she remarked.
