Mauritanian Response to Western Sahara Border Request
The official spokesperson for the Mauritanian government, Mohamed Boubana, affirmed Nouakchott's steadfast position on the Western Sahara dispute and its support for a peaceful solution under the auspices of the United Nations. He rejected any claims or analyses suggesting that Mauritania is seeking to demarcate its borders in a manner that raises ambiguity, security concerns, or legal issues. He clarified that the government's request to demarcate the borders aims to avoid any negative impacts on security and the economy, emphasizing that this is not related to any direct Mauritanian demands. This comes in the wake of the United Nations Secretary-General’s report, which revealed Mauritania's request to establish a committee to clarify the final borders through a consensual approach, at a time when negotiations are heading toward a solution based on autonomy under Moroccan sovereignty.
