  • Two years have passed since the reconciliation between Spain and Morocco that originated from an immigration crisis in Ceuta in 2021.
  • Pedro Sánchez has not thoroughly explained why Spain abandoned its neutrality on the Sahara issue.
  • The conflict in the Sahara has not been resolved militarily by the Polisario Front nor politically by Morocco.
  • Trade between Spain and Morocco has increased, exceeding 20 billion annually.
  • The opening of the commercial customs in Ceuta and Melilla is pending. Morocco resists acknowledging Spain’s sovereignty over the cities.
  • The relationship between Spain and Morocco is complicated due to their disparity in wealth and political systems.

Conclusion: The success of future projects between both nations depends on mutual cooperation and trust, and respect for reached agreements.
