“Pedro Sanchez denied historical neutrality of Spain on conflict in Western Sahara”

Saharawy Cause Militant, Najem Sidi sentences the Spanish government chief for the Moroccan autonomy plan.

Tribune. The Volte-face of the Spanish Government of Pedro Sanchez for the Moroccan Plan of Autonomy shocked the Saharawi people but also the Spanish people. Pedro Sanchez denied the historical neutrality of Spain by turning the back to the Spanish Constitution and international legality. His attitude weighs on the Spanish consciousness.

The Spanish newspaper El Pais published the entire message sent by the head of the Spanish Government, Pedro Sanchez, to the King of Morocco, Mohammed VI. In essence, this letter considers that the Moroccan proposal of autonomy, which dates from 2007, “is the most serious, credible and realistic basis for the resolution of the Sahraoui litigation”. Pedro Sanchez makes cavalier alone by deciding to align with the Moroccan position. Believing El Pais, Madrid has yielded Moroccan threats and songs related to clandestine emigration and other sensitive topics.

It’s a barter, but he was disavowed by the political class and civil society in Spain, who described the volte-face of the leader of the “shameful” and “scandalous” government. A serious opposition at the initiative of Mr. Sanchez is organized in the Government and Parliament. It is a question of presenting a proposal for a law defending the Saharawi people and its inalienable right to self-determination and independence, in accordance with the relevant United Nations resolutions.

Secured territory of force

The Saharawi people are not fooled. He remembers the tripartite agreement signed on November 14, 1975 in Madrid between Spain, Morocco and Mauritania, according to which the territory Sahrawi, former Spanish possession, had been shared as a cake between Rabat and Nouakchott. This pernicious agreement has never been registered in the Spanish Official Journal.

It must be remembered that the right of Western Sahara to self-determination is deeply rooted in the resolutions of the United Nations General Assembly. In particular, it follows from UN Resolution 1514 of 1960 on “the granting of independence to colonial countries and peoples”. This right was not abolished by the Tripartite Agreement of Madrid from 1975, which violated the procedure for the exercise of the right to self-determination determined by the United Nations General Assembly. The agreement received neither the approval of the international community nor that of the Saharawi people.
