Ceuta wants to install the statue of General José Millán-Astray, the first head of the Spanish Legion, unbolted in 2010 in La Coruña. Under his command, this army corps is accused of «atrocities and massacres in the Rif».
King Felipe VI is not visiting Ceuta and Melilla anytime soon while it was announced earlier this month. The two cities were excluded from the royal tour to reportedly avoid Morocco's anger.
