The United States reaffirmed its support for Morocco’s Autonomy Proposal on the Moroccan Sahara, describing it as a credible and realistic framework for negotiations.
Speaking at a United Nations Security Council briefing in New York, US Deputy Representative Ambassador Tammy Bruce emphasized that a US-drafted resolution adopted in October strongly backs talks aimed at reaching a mutually acceptable political solution, with Morocco’s proposal at the center of the process.
Bruce framed her remarks within a broader discussion on reaffirming the international rule of law, convened at the request of Somalia.
She stressed that the rule of law should not be treated as an abstract concept, but as a practical tool to protect sovereignty, dignity, and justice, while helping resolve conflicts peacefully.
Beyond the Moroccan Sahara, the ambassador highlighted US efforts in multiple conflict zones. She noted ongoing work in Sudan to secure a humanitarian truce and halt external military support to the warring sides.
In the Democratic Republic of the Congo, she urged both the DRC and Rwanda to adhere to the Washington Accords, while supporting the role of the UN peacekeeping mission, MONUSCO.
Bruce also highlighted the Security Council’s involvement in Gaza, noting its endorsement of a 20-point peace plan proposed by President Trump, which included the authorization of an international stabilization force.
She underscored the continued importance of UN sanctions, citing renewed measures against Al-Shabaab in Somalia, enforcement of sanctions on Iran, and efforts to implement restrictions targeting North Korea’s cyber activities that fund weapons programs.
The ambassador concluded by noting the United States’ focus on maritime security, including protecting navigation in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden, while expressing concern over China’s maritime claims in the South China Sea.
Through these actions, the US underlined its commitment to practical, action-focused diplomacy and its support for Morocco’s central role in advancing peace in the Sahara.
