The same week that Ceuta’s president, Juan Jesús Vivas, travelled to Brussels in a cry for help, we are joined by Czech centre-right MEP Tomáš Svetechovský and German Socialist MEP Birgit Sippel for their points of view. One month on from the arrival of thousands of irregular migrants in the Spanish city, we hear how EU countries could have shown more solidarity and what more can be done to help Ceuta.
Tomáš Svetechovský criticised the Spanish government’s handling of the situation, arguing that it should have acted sooner and requested more European support.
