Western Sahara autonomy prospects
The article addresses the developments in the political trajectory of the Western Sahara issue. The United Nations Secretary-General’s 2026 report notes the resumption of negotiations between Morocco, Algeria, Mauritania, and the Polisario Front regarding the Moroccan autonomy initiative. The report emphasizes shifting from discussions about the final status to exploring practical arrangements for implementing a political solution based on autonomy, while also opening discussions around a transitional phase, safeguards for implementation, and potential adjustments to the mandate of the MINURSO peacekeeping mission. Despite progress, disagreements remain over sovereignty, the right to self-determination, and the delineation of Mauritanian borders. It also highlights the importance of clarifying the nature of consultations with the local population to ensure self-determination, as well as the potential expansion of the UN mission’s role to support the implementation of political solutions. The upcoming Security Council resolution is expected to bolster the negotiation process and finalize arrangements for a political settlement.
