Russia has banned a Polisario delegation from taking part in the 2017 World Festival of Youth and Students, organized from the 14th to the 22nd of October in Sochi. A decision taken a few days after Dmitry Medvedev, the Russian Prime Minister visited the Kingdom.
The new EU-Moroccan trade negotiations have been targeted by a group of MEPs and the Polisario Front. Both believe that these talks would be in conflict with the CJEU’s verdict pronounced on the 21st of December 2016. The Front even called for the organization of a separate agreement with the EU.
