Under pressure from the Trump administration, Algiers has put forward an option regarding the future of the Tindouf camps, according to Moroccan sources. This proposal has raised concerns in both Rabat and Washington.
Accusations and testimonies point to possible links between the Azawad Liberation Front, jihadist groups active in the Sahel, and the Polisario, with areas of influence reportedly extending into Algeria.
The recent meeting in Turkey between Donald Trump's special advisor, Massad Boulos, and the Algerian Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ahmed Attaf, has sparked a shift in stance within the Polisario Front, which now openly opposes American demands. In response, the Trump administration has taken a tougher stance.
