The government of the Canary Islands aligns with Spain’s official position, supporting Morocco’s autonomy plan as the most serious, realistic and credible basis for resolving the dispute over the Moroccan Sahara, Canary Islands President Fernando Clavijo said on Monday in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria.
This position was expressed during a press briefing with the President of the Souss-Massa Regional Council, Karim Achengli, who is visiting Las Palmas de Gran Canaria at the head of a delegation composed of institutional and economic stakeholders from the region.
It follows the position adopted by Spain after the 13th High-Level Meeting, which welcomed United Nations Security Council Resolution 2797, emphasizing that genuine autonomy under Moroccan sovereignty is one of the most feasible solutions to resolve this issue.
“We are part of Spain and, of course, we fully adhere to the decisions taken by our government. We fully share and respect this agreement,” he said.
Recalling his three visits to Morocco during his term, Clavijo stressed the importance of consolidating cooperation relations with the Kingdom.
Several trade missions have been organized in this context to strengthen exchanges and capitalize on opportunities in various sectors, notably the blue economy, tourism, academic exchanges, and water management, he added.
