What do the appointments announced on Saturday, March 21, at the head of the Polisario's armed militias reveal? This reshuffle is reminiscent of the one carried out in 1991 by the former leadership of the Front. Here's an explanation.
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".
The official silence from Algeria regarding American maneuvers to classify the Polisario as a terrorist entity has been broken by Abdelaziz Rahabi, a former minister and influential diplomat. As Washington ramps up its pressure, Rahabi criticizes a transactional diplomacy orchestrated by the Republicans, which threatens to portray Algeria as a state supporting terrorism.
Republican Senator Ted Cruz has introduced a bill in the U.S. Senate aiming to classify the Polisario Front as a terrorist organization, accusing the Sahrawi movement of having ties with Iran and its networks in the region. The bill, titled the Polisario Front Terrorist Designation Act of 2026, seeks to compel the State Department to formally review this designation.
