> The arrival of 60,000 people from Morocco into Spain’s North African enclave of Ceuta last week has triggered serious tensions inside the European Union over immigration. Spain has called for EU interior ministers to meet. That meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, as European governments confront renewed divisions over how to handle the influx. The episode has placed migration back at the center of debate within the bloc.
