Moroccan Sahara division concludes
The article addresses the stance of the United Nations and developments related to the Western Sahara issue, particularly following the leak of the Guterres draft report concerning conflict resolution efforts. It emphasizes that Morocco insists on adopting the autonomy plan as its sole solution, since its initiative in 2007. The article reflects that the initiative involves an autonomous governance system negotiated and presented to the local population through a free referendum, in which they can exercise their right to self-determination, with international guarantees to ensure serious implementation and prevent the revival of separatist projects. It also notes that the report highlights the commitment of the parties to implementing Security Council Resolution 2797, while the Polisario Front refuses to recognize the autonomy plan as a solution. Despite this, the UN confirms that this solution fulfills the right to self-determination within a single state, cautioning against turning it into a pretext for future claims of independence. The article also discusses criticisms and differences between the Moroccan stance and official UN statements, emphasizing that proposed solutions depend on effective negotiations and international guarantees, rather than failed bilateral referendums, as past experiences have demonstrated.
