Rosemary DiCarlo, the United Nations Under-Secretary-General for Political and Peacebuilding Affairs, met Tuesday with Sidi Mohamed Ammar, the Polisario Front’s coordinator with the UN Mission for the Referendum in the Sahara (MINURSO), to discuss the latest developments in the UN-led political process regarding the dispute.
According to informed Hespress AR sources, the meeting addressed repeated security violations by the separatist group’s leadership, particularly the reported obstruction of MINURSO convoys from accessing the buffer zone in Aguenit. The sources described the incident as a direct interference with the UN mission’s work and a clear violation of UN Security Council resolutions.
Ammar, in a post on X (formerly Twitter), said the meeting reviewed the political process and that he shared the Polisario Front’s perspective on the conflict and proposed solutions.
The talks came just days after a closed-door session of the UN Security Council, during which UN Special Envoy Staffan de Mistura and MINURSO Chief Alexander Ivanko delivered separate briefings on the evolving situation.
De Mistura reportedly focused on his recent efforts to reinvigorate political negotiations and the outcomes of his consultations with key stakeholders. Ivanko presented a field assessment of the situation in southern Morocco, where the UN mission continues to monitor compliance with the ceasefire agreement.
