Saudi Foreign Affairs Minister, Prince Faisal Bin Farhan reiterated on Wednesday his country’s position on Morocco’s autonomy plan for Western Sahara.

“The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia reiterates its position, supporting the full sovereignty of Morocco over all its territories, including the Moroccan Sahara,” said Saudi Arabia’s official during a joint statement with Moroccan Foreign Affairs Minister Nasser Bourita.

This move came after both officials held talks during the two-day Global Coalition meeting.

During the same day, the Netherlands, Romania, Turkey and Serbia also recognized Morocco’s autonomy plan.

Last Month, Spain stood behind Morocco’s autonomy plan, leading to the strengthening of diplomatic ties between both countries.
