Rabat – October 31, 2025 – In a lofty address delivered by His Majesty King Mohammed VI, may God assist him, to the Moroccan Nation this Friday evening, His Majesty announced the beginning of a “new conquest” in consolidating the Moroccan identity of the Sahara, based on the Security Council resolution adopted today with 12 votes in favor. This speech represents a historic moment, combining celebration of the diplomatic achievement with unveiling a future roadmap, in the context of the 50th anniversary of the Green March and the 70th anniversary of independence. Below is a structured analytical reading of the speech’s key axes, focusing on strategic implications and targeted messages.
Strong Opening: “Clear Conquest” as a Symbol of Victory
His Majesty opens with the Quranic verse “Indeed, We have given you a clear conquest,” clearly referring to a decisive diplomatic victory in the Sahara file after 50 years of sacrifices. The speech affirms that October 31, 2025 represents a “crucial turning point,” with Morocco transitioning from the “management phase” to the “change phase” and then “international resolution.” This opening reflects Royal confidence in diplomatic dynamics and entrenches the idea of a “united Morocco from Tangier to Lagouira” as an inviolable red line.
Diplomatic Achievements: Figures and International Support
The speech highlights tangible progress on the international stage, supported by precise figures:
- Broad UN Support: Two-thirds of UN member states (over 130 countries) consider the autonomy initiative as the “only framework” for resolving the conflict.
- Economic Recognition: Decisions from major powers like the United States, France, the United Kingdom, Russia, Spain, and the European Union encourage investments in the southern provinces.
- Security Council Resolution: Defines the “principles and foundations” for a final solution, extending MINURSO’s mandate for another year.
| Achievement | Details | Expected Impact |
|---|---|---|
| Support from 2/3 of UN States | Autonomy initiative as sole solution | Isolation of opposing parties |
| Economic Recognition | Investments from major powers | Transformation of the Sahara into a regional development hub |
| Resolution 2756 (2024) | Principles for political solution | Basis for final negotiations |
Next Step: Updating the Autonomy Initiative
His Majesty announced updating and detailing the initiative and submitting it to the United Nations as the “sole basis for negotiations,” describing it as the “realistic and applicable solution.” This step transforms the initiative from a general proposal into an executable document, strengthening Morocco’s position in future talks and placing other parties before the choice of consensus or isolation.
Humanitarian Appeal: Family Reunification and Equal Opportunities
In a profound humanitarian message, His Majesty extends a sincere appeal to the inhabitants of the Tindouf camps:
- Seize the “historic opportunity” to return and contribute to local affairs management.
- Affirm complete equality between returnees and other Moroccans.
- A solution “with neither victor nor vanquished” that preserves everyone’s dignity.
This appeal embodies the noble Royal vision, shifting the conflict from political strife to an opportunity for family unity and development.
Diplomatic Gratitude and Call for Dialogue
- Special Thanks: To President Donald Trump (“paved the way”), France, the United Kingdom, Spain, and Arab and African sister countries.
- Call to Algeria: Fraternal dialogue with President Tebboune to overcome differences and build new relations based on trust and good neighborliness.
- Maghreb Vision: Reviving the Maghreb Union through mutual respect and integration.
Development and Tribute: Foundations of Stability
The speech emphasizes that development in the southern provinces results from everyone’s sacrifices:
- Economic Hub: Encompassing the Sahel and Sahara.
- Tribute: To the Royal Armed Forces, security forces, southern inhabitants, and King Hassan II (creator of the Green March).
Conclusion: Roadmap for a “United Morocco”
The speech is a declaration of a “clear conquest” combining diplomatic strength with humanitarian wisdom, with a strategic transition:
| Phase | Description | Timeframe |
|---|---|---|
| Management | Conflict administration | Before 2020 |
| Change | Recognition dynamics | 2020-2025 |
| Resolution | Final UN solution | After 10/31/2025 |
This address is not merely a celebration of victory but a roadmap for a united, prosperous Morocco open to regional and international cooperation.
