Explanation

Because both CE routers share AS 65514, routes learned via the SP (AS 65516) carry AS 65514 in their AS‑PATH and would be rejected as loops. Applying neighbor <PE-IP> allowas-in on the CE lets it accept prefixes that contain its own AS in the path, so CE1 can learn the Site 2 routes (and likewise you would mirror it on CE2 for Site 1). CE1(config)# router bgp 65514 CE1(config-router)# neighbor 192.168.1.2 allowas-in
