• Morocco showed its responsibility in the influx of immigrants by deploying the police on the border with Spain in Ceuta.
• Morocco's actions can be interpreted as a pressure strategy towards Spain and the European Union.
• Moroccan authorities sealed the accesses to Ceuta, blocking the passage to the beaches and installing water cannons.
• It is believed that we are facing the second part of a strategy designed by Morocco that includes allowing and then controlling immigration.
• Rabat wants to assert itself as the only interlocutor in controlling illegal immigration on this sensitive European border.

Conclusion: Morocco's responsibility in managing immigration does not exempt the Government of Spain from fulfilling its obligations.
