The images coming from Ceuta are unacceptable.
We cannot allow anyone to come to our Union without abiding by our rules.
Dangerous crossings must stop immediately. Smuggling networks must be dismantled. And returns must be swift, as our rules allow.
I tasked two Commissioners to support to control the situation.
@magnusbrunner is already working closely with Spain and is ready to travel to critical points.
He will work on additional operational support to Spain, including through Frontex.
@dubravkasuica is in contact with her Moroccan counterpart.
I am confident that our close partnership with Morocco will help deliver concrete results.
