To secure the support of Podemos during his inauguration as head of government, scheduled for September 23, Pedro Sanchez seems ready to sacrifice his good relations with Morocco. The Spanish politician believes that MINURSO must monitor human rights in the Sahara.
On the Throne Day, Mariano Rajoy and Pedro Sanchez published two columns in which they praised the twenty years of reign of King Mohammed VI. The two politicians are now added to the list of Spanish Prime Ministers who express sympathy towards Morocco.
As in 2008, Spanish voters chose to vote for the center-left Spanish Socialist Workers' Party. Pedro Sanchez has all cards in hand to form a new government. Would PSOE’s victory reassure Morocco ?
Spain has announced that it is holding a meeting «next week» with the head of Morocco's Customs Administration to address the sensitive topic.
