Chairperson of the African Union Commission Moussa Faki Mahamat is ignoring Morocco’s warnings. After a working visit to Algeria, he announced his intention to present a proposal for the settlement of the Western Sahara conflict.
The first meeting to bring Horst Köhler and a Moroccan delegation together went well. Morocco reiterated its conditions for the settlement of the conflict. A position that contradicts what the German mediator is advocating for.
The Court of Justice of the European Union has pronounced its ruling, causing the emergence of two different interpretations. The Polisario and its allies rejoiced over the decision while Morocco and the European Union tried to temper their reaction.
While Nasser Bourita denied Köhler’s visit to Rabat and the deployment of a Moroccan delegation to Berlin, the German mediator continues with his consultations.
The economic chapter is in the heart of the Ministers of Foreign Affairs and Finance’s current visit to Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. In fact, the aid expected to be granted to the Kingdom in 2012 by the Gulf Cooperation Council has seen a significant decline.
