The round-table process, highlighted by the UN Security Council in its two latest resolutions, including resolution 2548 adopted on October 30, 2020, is the “most appropriate” mechanism to reach a consensual political solution to the regional dispute over the Moroccan Sahara, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) stressed on Tuesday, before the 4th Committee of the UN General Assembly.
“My delegation supports the process under way, held under the exclusive auspices of the Secretary-General of the United Nations, aimed at reaching a political solution, mutually acceptable by all and negotiated by the main parties concerned,” said the representative of the DRC before the Committee.
“We are convinced that a climate of concord in this sub-region also requires a constructive and inclusive dialogue between the actors who are directly involved in this long-standing dispute”, underlined the Congolese diplomat.
“So, this is the place to recognize all the merits of the round table process (…) as the most appropriate mechanism for a solution to the Sahara issue,” he said.
Mauritius, for its part, expressed its support for the “negotiation process initiated by the Security Council with a view to reaching a just, lasting and mutually acceptable political solution” to the regional dispute over the Sahara.
“We also commend the efforts of the Secretary-General of the United Nations to resolve this dispute,” the representative of that country told the Committee.
