The Spanish Foreign Minister, Aranka Gonzalez Laya, talked about the crisis between Morocco and Spain, reaffirming the stability of her country's position on the issue of the Moroccan Sahara.
The minister said, in a press statement, that in relation to the issue of the Moroccan Sahara, "Spain is ready to consider any solution that Morocco proposes at the negotiating table."
"We have always been very careful about the situation in the desert ... We fully understand that Morocco has a great sensitivity to this issue.This respectable position includes an unwillingness to influence the position that the United States of America may take.
The minister added: “We want a negotiating solution within the framework of the United Nations.In this context, we are ready to consider any solution that Morocco proposes, taking into account that it is not the responsibility of Spain to mediate, because this role must be played by the United Nations.
Laya returned to talking about the crisis that broke out between the two kingdoms a few weeks ago, saying: “We entered into a crisis that we did not want at all, and it is clear that we want to get out of it as soon as possible.We will work to create a confidence space through which bilateral relationships can be directed. ”
Regarding the immigration crisis, Laya considered that "the European Union supported Spain, and in return the United States of America sided with the ranks of Morocco," and continued: "The European Union has fully supported Spain, but the United States was much further.Washington looked elsewhere .. ”.
The official in the central government in Madrid confirmed that Spain is considering the possibility of the European Border Agency "Fronx" in the occupied city of Ceuta and Melilla, then increased: "We are studying the possibility of merging the Fronxx, even partially, in monitoring the external borders of the European Union in Ceuta and Melilla.Nothing will be done without agreeing with the authorities of the two cities, ”she said.
