Senegalese Foreign minister Mankeur Ndiaye reiterated his country's "support" to the Moroccan autonomy initiative for the Sahara under the Kingdom's sovereignty.

Prime Minister of Antigua and Barbuda, Gaston Browne, expressed, here Thursday, his country's support for the territorial integrity of the Kingdom.

“Algeria is a direct party to the conflict over the Moroccan Sahara and should involve itself in the search for a solution to this problem,” said Minister Delegate for Foreign Affairs Mbarka Bouaida.

Morocco on Thursday drew the attention of the UN Committee for the Rights of the Child on the plight of children in Tindouf camps, southwestern Algeria.

Closed borders between Morocco and Algeria symbolizes non-Maghreb integration and significantly slows human and economic development in the region, says Oxfam France in a report entitled "20th anniversary of border closure between Algeria and Morocco: significant costs for the Maghreb".
