NEW YORK, Sept 27 (Bernama-MAP) -- Denmark considers the Autonomy Plan presented by Morocco in 2007 as a serious and credible contribution to the ongoing UN process regarding the Western Sahara conflict and is a good basis for an agreed solution between all parties.
This was relayed in a Joint Communiqué issued at the end of the talks between Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccan Expatriates, Nasser Bourita and Denmark’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Lars Løkke Rasmussen, on the sidelines of the 79th session of the UN General Assembly, on Wednesday in New York.
According to a report by Morocco’s Agence Marocaine de Presse (MAP), in this Joint Communiqué, the two Ministers reiterated their support to the UN-led process and for the UN Secretary-General's Personal Envoy for Western Sahara, Staffan de Mistura, and his efforts to achieve a peaceful and mutually acceptable solution to the conflict, in accordance with UN Security Council resolutions.
Denmark's new position is in line with the international momentum generated by His Majesty King Mohammed VI, in support of the autonomy plan and Morocco's sovereignty over its Sahara. It confirms a fundamental trend in Europe, in all regions of the continent.
The territorial conflict between Morocco and the Western Sahara’s pro-independence Polisario Front goes back to the end of Spanish colonial rule in 1975 over the territory.
