Thanks to the enlightened vision of His Majesty King Mohammed VI, Morocco’s southern provinces have now become a pillar of African and global integration, Jean-Paul Carteron, Founder and President of the Crans Montana Forum, stated on Thursday in Casablanca.

The Sahrawi population is more concerned with development than with political considerations, and there is no solution to this issue outside of an approach based on meeting the population's development needs within the framework of Moroccan sovereignty.

Several Sahrawi civil society activists have denounced human rights violations and the systematic repression of dissenting voices by the polisario in the Tindouf camps, southwest Algeria.

Peruvian Congress urged the Peruvian Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Monday to express its "support for the Moroccan autonomy initiative for the Sahara, recognizing its feasibility and credibility as the only solid basis for a final solution to this conflict."

The autonomy initiative for the kingdom’s southern provinces has gained international consensus to resolve the Moroccan Sahara issue, Comorian Ambassador to Rabat Yahya Mohamed Ilias affirmed on Thursday, lauding the region’s ongoing development and stability.
