Hungary considers that the Moroccan initiative to grant a substantial autonomy to Sahara “very constructive” and testifies the sincere willingness of Morocco to come up with a lasting solution to the conflict.

The Moroccan autonomy proposal is "a major step that should be encouraged," said Said Hadef, an Algerian intellectual, adding that Manhasset negotiations are very important to move towards a definitive solution to this conflict. 

 Bulgarian vice-prime minister, minister of foreign affairs, M. Ivailo Kalfin, reiterated, here Wednesday, his country's support to Morocco in endeavoring towards a negotiated solution to the Sahara dispute.

The latest report of the international NGO Human Rights Watch (HRW) on the Sahara is selective and ignores the case of children of Tindouf camps expatriates in Cuba and the Moroccans expelled from Algeria, said the Director of Management Systems International for Morocco, a U.S. consultancy firm. 

 The autonomy plan for of the southern provinces presented by Morocco aims to "promote the emergence of a compromise", reiterated the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation, Mr. Taib Fassi-Fihri, regretting that despite efforts of the Kingdom, described as "credible and serious" by the international community and the Security Council, Algeria and the Polisario "have never expressed" the desire for openness and realism.
