Morocco presents Sahara settlement principles at UN General Assembly

Western Sahara autonomy plan UN General Assembly diplomatic recognition Nasser Bourita

During the 81st session of the United Nations General Assembly in New York, Moroccan Foreign Minister Nasser Bourita presented a six-principle framework for the final settlement of the Western Sahara issue. This vision emphasizes the 2007 autonomy plan under Moroccan sovereignty as the primary basis for political negotiation under UN auspices.

Several nations have expressed formal support for Morocco's territorial integrity and the autonomy proposal. Chile has recognized Morocco's sovereignty over the Sahara and signed terms of reference to begin negotiating a free trade agreement. Panama has also reaffirmed its support, noting that its embassy exercises consular jurisdiction over the entire Moroccan territory. Additionally, Saint Lucia and Senegal have reiterated their support for the Moroccan autonomy plan.

Beyond the Sahara dispute, Morocco engaged in various bilateral meetings. Discussions with Somalia focused on multisectoral cooperation and educational scholarships, while talks with Cyprus aimed to strengthen political dialogue. Morocco also held discussions with the European Union to deepen partnerships in trade, security, and ecological transition.
