Chahid El-Hafed, 29, March 2022 (SPS) - The Frente POLISARIO has considered the position recently expressed by the President of the Spanish Government, Pedro Sánchez, an intransigence in the shameful betrayal of the will of the Saharawi people.
In a statement issued at the conclusion of the 06 Ordinary Session of its National Secretariat, under the presidency of Brahim Gali, POLISARIO expressed "its condemnation of the decision taken by the President of the Spanish Government, announcing its clear support for the alleged Moroccan autonomy plan for Western Sahara, thus siding with the illegal military invasion of Morocco to the territory of the Saharawi Republic”.
The statement adds that "this position represents a shameful act of abandonment and denial in the management policy followed by the Spanish State with respect to Western Sahara which, unable to fulfill its historical, political, legal and moral responsibility towards the Saharawi people, intends to get rid of its status as the administering power of a territory pending decolonization by making this unilateral decision.”
Notwithstanding this position, she "praised the unanimity of the Spanish peoples, their political forces, trade unions and all civil society in their rejection of the decision of the Spanish government, demonstrating in support of the inalienable right of the Saharawi people to self-determination and independence," the statement concludes.
