Two weeks ahead of the 31st African Union summit in Mauritania, Moussa Faki is expected to visit the Polisario. The Chairperson of the African Union Commission is pressured by the Front’s allies to meet Brahim Ghali in Bir Lahlou.
The European Commission adopted on June the 11th proposals amending the association agreement with the Kingdom of Morocco to grant preferences to products from Western Sahara, in line with ECJ ruling.
After Brahim Ghali toured Africa to strengthen the support of some of his allies, the Polisario Front is now targeting European universities to spread its separatist stance.
Three weeks before the start of the 31st African Union summit, Moussa Faki Mahamat visits Morocco to discuss the implementation of Resolution 653, adopted July 2017. The AU Chairperson will have to head later to the Tindouf camps.
Voting on the UN draft resolution on Western Sahara has been postponed by the U.S. after Russia stated that the text lacks «balance».
In his report on the Sahara, Antonio Guterres pointed to the MINURSO’s inability to monitor the ceasefire and report military movements in the eastern part of the security wall where ground patrols are carried only by day.
