Does Sahara solution lie through Trump's approach
The inauguration of the new highway officially named the "Trump Road" in Morocco is a geopolitically significant step. It aims to strengthen Morocco's sovereignty over Western Sahara and connect the region to China's economy, in addition to supporting the sustainable development plan for the southern areas and the autonomy proposal for the Western Sahara issue. Although the road does not explicitly bear Trump's name, its designation indicates U.S. administration support, especially after Trump's recognition of Morocco's sovereignty over Western Sahara in 2020. This reinforces Rabat's position in the dispute and emphasizes its ties with Washington. The road is expected to facilitate economic development and stability, while the government views the investments and new transportation links as advancing its political project in the region, despite increasing disillusionment among residents and unemployment rates declining in some areas.
