Spanish Senate Defends Canary Islands' Interests
The article focused on the Spanish Senate's move to reactivate negotiations over the maritime boundary delimitation with Morocco, aiming to safeguard Spain's sovereign rights in the waters around the Canary Islands. The initiative, submitted by parliamentarian Javier Armas, calls on the Spanish government to provide a statement on the progress of the negotiations within three months. It reflects a desire to pressure Rabat to re-engage in negotiations without proposing new maritime boundaries or a final agreement. The issue dates back to 2014, when Spain submitted a case to the United Nations concerning the extension of its continental shelf. Morocco, however, opposes the principle of unilateral delimitation and insists that the matter requires direct negotiations between the two countries. This move underscores the necessity of reaching a final agreement over the overlapping maritime zones between Spain and Morocco—a process that remains unresolved.
