In the United States, pressure on the Polisario Front continues to mount. Alongside congressional initiatives aimed at designating the group as a terrorist organization, a former Pentagon adviser is now calling on the United Nations to shut down the Tindouf camps.

Jason D. Greenblatt, former special envoy of the White House for the Middle East, urges that the Polisario Front be classified as a terrorist organization, highlighting its growing ties with Iran. This statement aligns with the actions of American political figures such as Joe Wilson and Ted Cruz, and sheds light on a little-known "Iranian proxy war".
