The Guardian: The decision of Seychelles to withdraw its recognition of the SADR is courageous
4/17/2008

According to the newspaper, African history analysts "have always clearly maintained that Western Sahara is part of the Kingdom of Morocco", pointing out that external forces have forced African countries to recognize the RASD, which led Morocco to withdraw from the Organisation of African Unity (now the African Union).

The newspaper said that the Republic of Seychelles has stressed in a letter on March 18 to the commission of the African Union, that "like most African countries supporting the ongoing UN process for the settlement of Sahara conflict, the Republic of Seychelles has decided to withdraw its recognition of the RASD. "

Looking for a political solution to the Sahara issue has become more urgent after the return to Morocco of hundreds of Saharawis, the newspaper said, adding that the majority of them had taken part in the Gjijimat congress organized, in December 2007, to condemn the Polisario rhetoric and expressed their full support to the Moroccan proposal of autonomy.
