Morocco commended the adoption by the UN Security Council Resolution No. 2654 on the issue of the Moroccan Sahara, said the foreign ministry in a statement.
This decision extends the mandate of the MINURSO mission to the Moroccan Sahara until the end of October 2023.
The Moroccan Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated, in a statement that the adoption of this decision falls within a context characterized by the important achievements made under the leadership of King Mohammed VI.
the increasing international support from important and influential countries reflects the Moroccan initiative for autonomy, the opening of more than 30 general consulates in the cities of Laayoune and Dakhla, and the non-recognition of more than 84 percent of the member states of the United Nations of the Polisario, in addition to the economic and social development in the southern provinces.
The Moroccan Foreign Ministry’s statement added that the new decision, which came to perpetuate Morocco’s previous gains, constitutes a confirming decision for this development.
The source continued, “It is a decision that reaffirms the framework of the political process, its actors, and its purpose.”
The resolution considered the “round tables” formula to be the only framework for discussion with the aim of reaching a final solution to the regional dispute.
The resolution also mandated the Personal Envoy of the Secretary-General of the United Nations to “facilitate” the political process by “building on … the framework established by the former Personal Envoy,” that is, the two “round tables” that were held in Geneva in December 2018 and March 2019 respectively.
