Letter from Spanish president Pedro Sánchez to @EUCommission president Ursula von der Leyen. [Source: static.eldiario.es/eldiario/public/…]

El Presidente del Gobierno

H.E. Mrs. Ursula von der Leyen
President of the European Commission
BRUSSELS
Madrid, 1 August 2026
Dear President Von del Leyen:
I am writing to express my serious concern regarding the recent reaction that some
European governments have shown following the incident that took place at the
external border of the European Union in Ceuta.
As you know, around 50,000 migrants entered this Spanish territory irregularly and
unexpectedly earlier this week. In less than 48 hours, my Government has
succeeded in fully restoring control over the border, in providing extensive
humanitarian assistance, in returning virtually all of the migrants who crossed
irregularly, and in preventing any unauthorized onward movement towards
continental Europe.
This has been achieved in close coordination with the Moroccan authorities and
with very little support from other European states, while pursuing the effective
and solidarity-based migration policy that Spain has consistently implemented
over recent years. A policy that has enabled us to reduce irregular arrivals through
our territory dramatically, making Spain the second most secure external border
in the EU, despite being the only Member State with a land border with Africa. This
successful policy has also allowed us to assist other Member States when they
faced similar crises, like when we hosted several of the migrants that arrived to
Eastern Europe through Belarus in 2021 and to Lampedusa in 2023.
Despite these indisputable facts, the reaction of European governments over the
past few hours has been rather asymmetric. Most have showed us their support
and solidarity, and have offered their assistance. Others, however, have chosen to
attack Spain and to call for its temporary exclusion from the Schengen Area.

Such an attitude –driven by prejudice, fake news, ignorance, or political interest–
is not only contrary to European law, humanitarian law, and the principles of
solidarity that bind us together. It is also contrary to Europe’s long-term interests
and to the most basic common sense, because Ceuta is not part of the Schengen
Area, because there are almost no irregular migrants left unreturned, and because
Spain is, according to Frontex, one of the least porous external borders of the
European Union, with a number of irregular entries that is half that recorded, for
example, in Italy in recent years (2021–2026).
In the current international context, the European Union cannot afford this kind of
selfish, polarising and unlawful reaction.
For this reason, in light of the seriousness of the situation, we would ask the Irish
Presidency of the Council of the European Union to convene, as a matter of
urgency, an extraordinary videoconference of the Ministers of the Interior. This
meeting should enable us to establish a common response to situations of this
kind and reaffirm that the security of our external borders is a shared responsibility
of all Member States, and not only of those on the Union’s front line.
We count on your leadership to ensure that the European Union responds swiftly,
effectively and in a coordinated manner.
Yours sincerely,
[signed]
Pedro Sánchez
President of the Government of Spain

Google Drive has one call to action, and it's UPGRADE. (I'm unfortunately still a paying customer, and I want *no* Gemini)

@jbond the demonization of both migration and degrowth (AKA consolidation) is irrational and paid for by a few assholes who amassed too much wealth and need a 30cm haircut.

The Canadian astronaut smiles because he can go home and get away from that creep, but the others look like they'd rather have stayed in orbit around the moon. www.theguardian.com/science/2026/ap…

@jbcrawford ATMs were so *exciting* when they rolled out in the late 70s Midwest. I was still a kid, but I had a savings account and got a *tyme* card which I used so much the bank manager collared me and told me to knock it off (way before nuisance fees) […] [Original post on mastodon.social]
