Moncloa Releases Call Logs to Rebut Ceuta Leader's Claims

The Spanish government has released official call records to refute assertions made by the president of the North African enclave of Ceuta, Juan Jesús Vivas, El País and Infobae reported. Vivas had previously stated that he made ten unsuccessful attempts to speak with Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez ahead of a mass border crossing.

According to El País, La Moncloa stated that nine phone calls took place with Vivas's cabinet and that all requests were addressed. Conversely, Infobae reported that the Ceuta leader maintained his version, asserting that he had only spoken with the central government delegate in the preceding days and rebuking Sánchez for contacting him only on the day of the crossing itself.
