Mr. Khalihenna Ould Errachid giving interview to the newspaper “Raya” on the 14thDecember, 2006

Asharq Al Awsat : the chairman of the Royal Advisory Council for Saharan Affairs, said autonomy plan in the Sahara proposed by Morocco «is equal to self-determination”, which will put an end to the conflict and the sufferings of Sahrawis in Tindouf in south-western Algeria.

The autonomy project in the Sahara that Morocco will submit to the United Nations next October is "inspired" by the Spanish model, as confirmed by Khalihenna Ould Errachid, the chairman of the Royal Advisory Council for Saharan Affairs (corcas), the body created by Mohammed VI last March to search for a way out, suitable to a union, to the old dispute over the former Spanish colony.

French regional weekly "Le Petit Niçois"  covered in its last issue the creation of the Royal Advisory Council for Saharan Affairs as well as the last Royal visit to the Southern Regions which was an opportunity for Sahrawis to express their attachment to their identity and territorial integrity.
