The migration crisis in Ceuta has led to increasing tension between Italian leader Giorgia Meloni and Spanish President Pedro Sánchez. Meloni has seized this situation to strengthen her position in the European arena ahead of the general elections in Italy, scheduled for next year.

The confrontation centers on migration policies, with Meloni criticizing Sánchez's management, exacerbating the existing divide between Rome and Madrid on this issue.
