Georges-Louis Bouchez, president of Belgium’s Reformist Movement (MR) party, announced on Tuesday the submission of a draft law to the Belgian Chamber of Representatives to recognize Morocco’s sovereignty over the Sahara.

In a video shared on his official X (formerly Twitter) account, Bouchez stated that the proposal reflects the shared challenges and opportunities between Brussels and Rabat, particularly in the areas of security, energy, and economic cooperation.

“Our friendship should allow us to address these challenges together,” Bouchez said, adding that the proposed law also aims to support Morocco’s autonomy plan for the Sahara. He stressed that recognizing Moroccan sovereignty is “fundamental for Morocco and central to our friendly relationship.”
