A new permanent member of the United Nations Security Council has just shifted its stance on the Western Sahara issue. The United Kingdom, which had previously maintained a neutral position, has now announced its support for the Moroccan autonomy plan. This significant change highlights the growing positive momentum of Moroccan diplomacy.
Syria, under the leadership of President Ahmed Al-Charaa, has officially severed ties with the Polisario. In the presence of Moroccan representatives, the new Syrian authorities declared the separatist movement persona non grata. This decision leaves the Polisario without a key regional backer, reducing its support in the Middle East to just Lebanese Hezbollah and Iran.
A new chapter in Morocco-Kenya relations is taking shape. On Monday in Rabat, Nairobi took a significant step towards supporting the solution proposed by Morocco since 2007 to resolve the Western Sahara issue.
