Rabat, Morocco — The Commonwealth of Dominica has reiterated its support for Morocco’s autonomy plan for the Sahara region, aligning with an international consensus that has been growing around the proposal.
The move comes as part of a broader diplomatic effort led by Morocco, which has been advocating for the autonomy plan as a realistic and credible solution to the long — standing conflict over the Sahara region. This stance was echoed by Dominica’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Vince Henderson, during discussions with his Moroccan counterpart, Nasser Bourita.
The Sahara conflict, which dates back to the late 20th century, has seen Morocco claim sovereignty over the region, while the Polisario Front has sought independence for the area.
The United Nations has been involved in mediating the dispute since 1975, and Dominica’s support for Morocco reflects the Pan-African perspective that advocates for the territorial integrity of African states. Henderson’s support for Morocco’s autonomy plan underscores the importance of diplomatic engagement and dialogue in resolving complex international disputes. It also serves as a reminder of the ongoing efforts to find a peaceful and sustainable solution to the Sahara conflict, which has been a source of tension and instability in the region for decades.
As the international community continues to engage in negotiations and discussions, the hope is that a lasting and mutually acceptable solution can be found that respects the rights and aspirations of all parties involved.
The role of the United Nations and other international actors in facilitating these efforts is crucial in ensuring that the peace process moves forward in a constructive and inclusive manner.
