The People's Party (PP) has expressed its discontent over the absence of Interior Minister Fernando Marlaska at the Senate Committee convened to address the crisis in Ceuta. According to the PP, this lack of presence represents "a lack of respect" towards the body and its functions.

In response to Marlaska's non-appearance, the PP has threatened with "legal consequences." This statement underscores the party's frustration regarding the ministerial management of the migration issue in Ceuta.

Other parties, such as Vox and Junts, have also criticized the minister's absence, labeling the act as "deliberate and inexcusable." These political groups believe that the situation requires a clear response from the Government.

The president of the Committee stated that "political and legal decisions" will be made to ensure that Marlaska's absence does not go unpunished. The minister's lack of attendance has sparked a debate on political responsibility in managing migration crises.

While the Senate evaluates possible sanctions against Marlaska, opposition parties continue to emphasize the need for his appearance to address the crisis of irregular entries of people in Ceuta.
