flag Belgium backs Morocco’s Western Sahara autonomy plan, aligning with key allies ahead of a UN vote.

flag Belgium has formally endorsed Morocco’s 2007 autonomy plan for Western Sahara, calling it the most credible path to resolving the decades-old dispute. flag The move, announced in a joint declaration with Moroccan Foreign Minister Nasser Bourita, marks Belgium’s alignment with the U.S., UK, France, and other Western nations in supporting Morocco’s sovereignty over the region while allowing local self-governance. flag The decision follows diplomatic shifts by several countries and comes ahead of a UN Security Council vote expected to back Morocco’s proposal. flag Algeria and the Polisario Front continue to reject the plan, demanding a referendum on independence. flag The EU remains divided, with ongoing trade negotiations involving Western Sahara complicating the situation.
