The resolution calls on all parties to cooperate fully with the UN Secretary-General and his personal envoy to reach a political solution to this regional dispute on the basis of the resolutions adopted by the Security Council since 2007. It thus supports the political process based on the 19 Security Council resolutions since 2007, with a view to reaching a “just, lasting and mutually acceptable political” solution to the question of the Moroccan Sahara.
The document commends efforts in this direction and calls on all parties to cooperate fully with the Secretary-General, and with each other, in order to reach a “mutually acceptable political solution.”
This resolution, like its predecessors and those adopted by the Security Council over the past two decades, does not at any time mention the referendum, which is dead and buried by the UN Secretary-General as well as by the General Assembly and the UN Security Council.
The UN General Assembly also welcomes in this resolution the commitment of the parties to continue to demonstrate political will and to work in an atmosphere conducive to dialogue, on the basis of the efforts made and the new developments since 2006, thus ensuring the implementation of the Security Council resolutions since 2007.
It should be noted that the only new development in the political process since 2006 is the presentation by Morocco on 11 April 2007 of the autonomy initiative.
In this regard, the resolution supports the Security Council resolutions since 2007, which have enshrined the preeminence of the autonomy initiative presented by Morocco, welcomed by the Executive Body and the entire international community as a serious and credible initiative for the definitive settlement of this regional dispute within the framework of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Kingdom.
The text also supports the recommendations of resolutions 2440, 2468, 2494, 2548, 2602 and 2654, adopted at the end of October 2022, which determine the parameters of the solution to the regional dispute over the Moroccan Sahara, namely a political, realistic, pragmatic, lasting solution based on compromise.
Resolutions 2440, 2468, 2494, 2548, 2602 and 2654, it should be recalled, established the round table process and defined, once and for all, its four participants, namely Morocco, Algeria, Mauritania and the “polisario”. Indeed, resolutions 2440, 2468, 2494, 2548, 2602 and 2654 cite Algeria, in the same way as Morocco, five times, thus reaffirming Algeria’s role as the main party to this regional dispute.
These Security Council resolutions also welcome the measures and initiatives taken by Morocco for the promotion and protection of human rights in its southern provinces, and the role played by the Commissions of the National Human Rights Council in Laayoune and Dakhla, as well as Morocco’s interaction with the mechanisms of the United Nations Human Rights Council.
They also reiterate the request of the UN executive body for the registration and census of the populations of the Tindouf camps, and demand the deployment of the necessary efforts to this end.
This resolution of the 4th Committee of the General Assembly does not refer at all to a so-called imaginary war that Algeria and its puppet the “polisario” claim exists in the Moroccan Sahara. Thus, after the Security Council, the Commission exposes, in its turn, the lies and false allegations of Algeria and the “polisario” about the situation in the Moroccan Sahara marked by tranquility, stability and all-round development.
