Madrid,
08/03/2007 (SPS) The President of the Coordination of the Spanish
Associations of Solidarity with the Saharawi People (CEAS-Sahara),
Mr. José Taboada, denounced on Wednesday the "unjust" position of
the Spanish Socialist government on the conflict of the Western
Sahara, warning against the consequences of such a position on the
stability in the region.
"To adopt an unjust position and to oppose the rights of a people is
ethically and morally unacceptable", stated Mr. Taboada, who said
that the "autonomy plan" proposed by Morocco for the Western Sahara
"will only generate more sufferings for the Saharawi people as well
as for the Moroccan citizens".
The President of the Coordination considered that the Spanish
support to the policy of Rabat i the Western Sahara "is neither
useful nor intelligent", since this policy, "did not bring peace and
stability to the region in the last 32 years". He qualified the
Spanish support to Morocco as a "shame" and a "new betrayal of the
Saharawi people, similar to that of 1975".
On another hand, he noted that the Moroccan policy will lead no
where because, "none can dispossess the Saharawi people from its
right to self-determination".
"Through favouring the short term political and economical gains,
the President of the Spanish Government, José Luis Rodriguez
Zapatero, deceived us. We now understand why Morocco had finally
signed the fishing agreement and all what is related to the question
of migration, drugs traffic and the cooperation in the antiterrorism
struggle", underlined Mr. Taboada, who denounced the use by Rabat of
this question as a card to put pressure. (SPS)
