The BRICS leaders, who met in Johannesburg, provided a significant boost to Morocco’s stance on the Sahara issue by supporting it and affirming their dedication to international law. This move dealt a fatal blow to Algeria and the “polisario,” according to the Monday report on Atalayar, a Spanish magazine.
“The BRICS meeting’s declaration unequivocally supports the Moroccan stance,” advocating for the United Nations’ exclusive leadership in the process while emphasizing the importance of respecting and actively contributing to it, says the magazine specializing in Maghreb and Arab affairs.
The countries in this grouping emphasized that resolving the Moroccan Sahara issue and finding a sustainable political solution require adherence to the Security Council’s resolutions and parameters, according to the Spanish publication.
The international community, including the United Nations, African countries, and global actors, favor the Moroccan autonomy initiative because it aligns with the pragmatism, realism, compromise, and sustainability required by the Security Council, if further noted.
“The BRICS members rejected attempts to include this issue in discussions and did not mention it in their statements,” notes Atalayar. The fact that none of them recognized the “puppet” entity indicates these countries refused to use BRICS for lost causes.
The magazine warns that this failure should serve as a warning to those persisting in giving global resonance to isolated thinking.
“This position taken by the BRICS also showcases the group’s commitment to its relationships and strategic partnerships with the Kingdom, despite external interference,” observes the Spanish publication.
