Europe migrant invasion: Russia says Ceuta migrant crossings are blowback from EU‑backed wars?

Published on Aug 01, 2026 09:48 am IST

Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko says the deadly migrant crisis in Spain’s Ceuta enclave is a “humanitarian catastrophe” that exposes the collapse of the EU’s long‑standing migration policy and stems from Western “regime‑change” wars in Iraq, Syria, Libya and now Iran that destroyed state structures and turned regions into havens for terrorists, while accusing European “solidarity” of being limited to competing over who can be tougher on Russia, lamenting the erosion of Swiss neutrality, and warning that Germany’s plan to expand the Bundeswehr in defiance of its post–Cold War commitments is a “militarisation” Europe meets with a “silence of the lambs,” even as Moscow stays in close contact with Turkey about possible Ukraine talks.
