Italy's "Democracy and Subsidiarity" political party has called on the Government to open a consulate in the Kingdom's Southern Provinces, which "abound in economic and social opportunities."

The autonomy plan presented by the Kingdom in 2007 is "the most credible and serious proposal for a lasting and final solution" to the artificial dispute over the Moroccan Sahara, French Senator Ludovic Haye said on Friday.

The autonomy plan presented by Morocco is a serious and credible solution, stressed, Friday in Rabat, the Italian MP, Marco Di Maio, affirming his support for this plan which should be backed by other countries.

Italian MPs, Marco Di Maio (MP) and Urania Papatheu (senator) said, Friday in Rabat, that the creation of a parliamentary intergroup in support of the autonomy plan seeks to promote a "fair and consensual solution" to the artificial conflict over the Sahara.
