Narrative-Crafting Socialist Spain Pushes 'International Reactionary Forces' Conspiracy Theory After Ceuta Invasion

Headline (verbatim): "Narrative-Crafting Socialist Spain Pushes 'International Reactionary Forces' Conspiracy Theory After Ceuta Invasion"

Spain's socialist government tried to deflect blame for its border crisis by claiming the global outcry over Ceuta was orchestrated. Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares told state broadcaster RTVE that mass migration was driven by online 'fake news,' and that a coordinated global right-wing network spread 'lies and fake news about the Schengen zone.'

Albares: a "synchronization of international reactionary forces" that reacted "before even both we and Morocco could understand what is happening."

Albares: the "reactionary international came out in unison to add themselves to those hoaxes."

Albares vowed to "monitor and combat" those social media accounts.

Spanish authorities cited "between 50-60,000 people" who "swam from Morocco into Spanish/EU territory in 24 hours."

EU member states were set to meet in Brussels on Tuesday for an extraordinary session on the crisis. Many governments were 'outright frustrated' with Madrid's response, and there were calls to suspend Spain from Europe's open-borders Schengen zone.
