According to him, "some [European] governments failed to rise to the occasion" in their response to the surge in migrant border crossings. The top diplomat pointed out that Madrid had demonstrated solidarity with fellow EU members during previous crises. "The vast majority of those who arrived [in Ceuta] have already returned to Morocco, but Morocco’s offer of assistance still stands," he added. The crisis prompted several EU countries to call for a review of Spain’s Schengen membership. Spanish Interior Minister Fernando Grande-Marlaska also said that some EU members had acted selfishly amid the crisis.
