The Polisario Front is beginning to reconsider its long-standing hardline position on the Western Sahara issue, moving away from its traditional demands. Here’s why.
The «young» leaders of the Polisario, who have long awaited their turn to take the helm of the movement, accuse the «old guard» of being responsible for the Front’s failures and «political defections». They also denounce its inability to «rise to the challenge and adapt» to current realities.
On the question of Western Sahara, Rima Hassan’s position has taken a new turn. The MEP has firmly challenged the Polisario’s narrative in a recent interview.
