New York, 09/03/2007, (SPS) The President of the Republic,
Mohamed Abdelaziz, started on Thursday his work programme in New
York with a set of meetings with representatives of member States in
the UN’s Security Council, indicated an authorised Saharawi source.
The Head of the State had a first meeting with Mr. Dumisani Kumalo,
President of the Security Council and permanent representative of
South Africa, the same source added.
Then, he met with the Ambassadors of the United Kingdom, China,
Slovakia and Russia, all of which are members of the Security
Council.
On Thursday afternoon, Mr. Abdelaziz had a meeting with the UN
Secretary General, Mr. Ban Ki Mon, the same source said.
It is also expected that the programme of the President of the
Saharawi State will continue on Friday in New York with new
meetings.
"The President of the Saharawi Republic will discuss with the
different interlocutors the last developments of the conflict in the
ex-Spanish colony on the light of the prolonged blockage caused by
the Moroccan rejection of the different resolutions of the UN,
including the Baker Plan", the Saharawi representative underlines.
One of the main preoccupations of the Saharawi party is to transmit
to the United Nations and its new Secretary General in addition to
the members States of the Security Council the total rejection by
the POLISARIO Front of the so-called Moroccan proposition about an
autonomy for the Western Sahara within the framework of the
pretended sovereignty of Morocco on the Saharawi territory.
The Saharawi President will also reaffirm the constant position of
the Polisario Front regarding the fact that the question of the
Western Sahara is a decolonisation problem that can only be resolved
on the basis of the respect of the Saharawi people’s right to
self-determination ad independence.
Abdelaziz is accompanied by a delegation composed of Mhamed Khadad,
Coordinator with the MINURSO, Boukhari Ahmed and Mouloud Said
respectively representative in New York and in Washington in
addition to Abdati Breica, Counselor at the Presidency. (SPS)
