Pedro Sánchez stated on 9 de septiembre that Ceuta and Melilla must prepare for what he described as a “structural reality”: inequality in per capita income and opportunities on both sides of the border.

• The expression “structural reality” is a formulation attributed to Sánchez.
• Sánchez linked that expression to differences in per capita income and opportunities.
• The claim does not demonstrate that economic inequality alone caused the mass influx.
