Moroccan Monarch Affirms Sovereignty over Sahara in Green March Speech

King Mohammed VI of Morocco, in his speech commemorating the 49th anniversary of the Green March, confirmed that Morocco has succeeded in establishing a tangible reality based on historical and legal legitimacy in the Moroccan Sahara issue.

The Moroccan monarch emphasized the strong historical ties binding the Sahara’s inhabitants to the Kingdom of Morocco, referring to the historical allegiance relationship between the people of the Sahara and Morocco’s kings. He also pointed to the growing international support for Morocco’s sovereignty over the Sahara and the widespread recognition of the autonomy proposal as a realistic solution to the conflict.

In a related context, King Mohammed VI criticized positions contrary to reality, noting that some parties still cling to outdated propositions, whether through demanding a referendum, attempting to exploit the issue to gain maritime access to the Atlantic Ocean, or using it to cover up internal problems.

In concluding his speech, the Moroccan monarch called on the United Nations to assume its responsibilities and clarify the difference between the tangible reality represented by Morocco in its Sahara and the unrealistic perceptions promoted by some parties.

It is worth noting that this speech comes in the context of positive developments in the Moroccan Sahara issue at the international level, and the increasing international recognition of the autonomy proposal as a realistic and final solution to this regional dispute.
