Ceuta and Melilla. Morocco nursed a long-standing claim to the Spanish ‘enclaves’ (the former ceded to Spain by Portugal in 1668, the latter conquered in 1497) and associated islands off the north Moroccan coast. This claim was stimulated – not for the first time - by apparent progress in negotiations between Britain and Spain over Gibraltar, specifically the British proposal in 2001 to share the sovereignty of Gibraltar with Spain. The Spanish Foreign Minister made clear that there was no question of opening discussions on the future of the enclaves as a result of the occupation of the island; such issues were ‘not matters for discussion.’45 For his part, Morocco’s Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, Xxxxx Xxxxx, indicated that the occupation of the island had nothing to do with the claim over the enclaves.46
