Morocco’s Permanent Representative to the UN, Omar Hilale, laid bare, Wednesday before the members of the 4th Committee of the UN General Assembly, the seven founding lies of Algeria’s separatist agenda about Morocco’s Sahara.

“60 years ago, almost to the day and in this same building, Morocco requested, in 1963, the inclusion of the question of what was called, at the time, the Spanish Sahara, on the agenda of the Special Committee on Decolonization, to definitively recover its Saharan provinces”, Hilale recalled.

The Fourth Committee of the UN General Assembly adopted, on Wednesday, a resolution reiterating its support for the political process carried out under the exclusive auspices of the United Nations for the settlement of the regional dispute over the Moroccan Sahara and reaffirming the final burial of the referendum.

Colonial powers have often created problems, divisions, and conflicts when they leave an occupied region, rather than exiting cleanly. Since gaining independence, Morocco has consistently claimed sovereignty over the Sahara. This claim was renewed in 1958 and 1959, and Morocco continued to assert its rights in various forums.

London - The London Court of appeal irrevocably dismissed, on Thursday, the appeal by the pro-separatist NGO "WSC" against a previous decision by the administrative Court, rejecting its application to reconsider the Association Agreement between Morocco and the United Kingdom.
 

This third setback since last December for the enemies of Morocco's territorial integrity confirms the validity of the association agreement linking the two countries, which benefits the populations and development of all the Kingdom's regions, from north to south.

Titled "Moroccan Women Detained in Polisario Camps, Prisons: Serious Human Rights Violations," the study conducted by Malika Bensahra and Fatima Amrani at the University Sidi Mohamed Ben Abdellah in Fez sheds light on barbaric practices of the Polisario. The latter deliberately used kidnapping, followed by rape, to increase the captive population in the Tindouf camps.

History has already documented how the Tindouf camps were established. The Algerian army entered the Saharan provinces at the time of decolonization and the evacuation of Spanish troops, and led thousands of people who were settled in camps in Tindouf to create the myth of refugees who were brainwashed by Algeria.

"After the incident on Thursday night, in which Polisario militiamen entered the tent of the relatives of the Secretary General of the Sahrawi Movement for Peace (MSP), Hach Ahmed, and attacked one of his nieces and an eighty-year-old diabetic uncle, there was strong general unrest throughout the Dajla camp.

According to sources from the MSP, the residents of the camp, who mostly belong to the Ulad Delim tribe, caused a series of disturbances.

A good understanding of the Sahara issue requires a holistic approach due to the myriad of problems that define it:

"The separatist movement of the 'Polisario' is a 'real time bomb' for Algeria," said political analyst Mustapha Tossa estimating that for decades, this 'losing cause' has absorbed a large part of the Algerian economy.

During the last legislative, regional and local elections held in Morocco on September 08, 2021, the two regions of the Sahara had the highest turnout across all Moroccan regions, despite the constraints imposed by the measures related to the Covid-19 pandemic.
