The United Arab Emirates (UAE) opened last Wednesday a consulate general in Laayoune, reported Senegalese news portal “SENEWEB”.
The Emirates became the third Arab country to have consular representation in the Moroccan Sahara, after Djibouti and the Union of the Comoros, it underlined.
The United Arab Emirates have thus followed the lead of the Union of the Comoros, Gabon, the Central African Republic, Sao Tome and Principe, Burundi, Côte d’Ivoire, Eswatini and Zambia, who opened consular representations in the capital of Moroccan Sahara.
The UAE also joined Gambia, Equatorial Guinea and Guinea-Bissau, the Republic of Djibouti, Liberia and Burkina Faso who opened consulates in Dakhla in 2020 , the portal added.
This long series of inaugurations of diplomatic missions in Laayoune and Dakhla continues, as a strong gesture reaffirming the recognition of the Sahara’s marocanity by many countries, “SENEWEB” concluded.
