The United Nations Security Council postponed Thursday’s scheduled vote on the draft resolution concerning the Sahara dispute, according to the council’s updated agenda published on the UN website.
The meeting had been set for 10 a.m. New York time to decide on the renewal of the mandate of the UN mission in the Sahara, MINURSO, which expires Friday.
However, the revised agenda made no mention of the item, focusing instead on discussions related to the Sudan crisis, the 1540 Committee on non-proliferation, and other internal consultations.
The delay suggests the vote will take place at a later date yet to be announced.
The draft resolution, sponsored by the United States, reaffirms support for Morocco’s autonomy plan as the only realistic framework for resolving the regional dispute and extends the mission’s mandate until January 31, 2026.
