- Spain's junior government partner, Sumar, is urging the country to reconsider co-hosting the 2030 World Cup with Morocco following a significant migration crisis in the Spanish enclave of Ceuta.

- Sumar MP Nahuel Gonz accused Morocco of using migrants for political pressure, telling broadcaster TVE, "The Moroccan state, the Moroccan monarchy, does not respect human rights, it uses migrants to exercise political pressure."

- In Portugal, the party Livre echoed these concerns by sending a letter to Prime Minister Montenegro and the Portuguese Football Federation, deeming the joint World Cup bid "unsustainable.
