(SPS) – The President of the Republic and Secretary General of the Frente POLISARIO, Brahim Ghali, said that “the European Union must be part of the solution and not part of the problem in the conflict in Western Sahara”, ensuring that “it is time for the European Union to accompany the African Union in a constant and serious way to find a definitive solution to the conflict in Western Sahara”.
During his speech within the framework of the session dedicated to peace and security, the President of the Republic “urged Europe to play a positive role in the search for a solution and to renounce its position as part of the problem, contributing to the strengthening of conditions for peace, security and stability in the North African and Sahel region”.
After underlining the importance of this summit and its objectives to unify the vision and objectives of both organizations, the President of the Republic stated that “in order for there to be lasting peace in Western Sahara, it is necessary to avoid the escalation of tensions in this conflict which has lasted for over forty-five years, especially taking into account the situation that has prevailed since November 13, 2020, which will only be possible through the implementation of a just solution, based on respect for international legality and the principle of decolonization” .
