Moroccan autonomy urged
Julian Harston, the former head of the United Nations Mission for the Referendum in Western Sahara (MINURSO), called for the mission to be ended, arguing that it had effectively outlived its purpose after a self-determination referendum could not be held because of disputes over who would be eligible to vote and the terms of participation. His call came after the mission’s mandate expired on October 31, with no agreement in the Security Council to extend it or adopt an alternative arrangement. Harston championed autonomy under Moroccan sovereignty as, in his view, the only viable solution, and accused Algeria of obstructing a political settlement and keeping thousands of Sahrawis in camps in Tindouf.
