flag UN backs Morocco’s autonomy plan for Western Sahara, urging negotiations based on its 2007 proposal.

flag The UN Security Council has adopted a resolution endorsing Morocco’s autonomy plan for Western Sahara as the basis for negotiations, marking a major diplomatic shift. flag Backed by 11 members with Russia, China, and Pakistan abstaining, the resolution calls for talks centered on Morocco’s 2007 proposal, which grants local self-government while preserving Moroccan control over defense, foreign affairs, and resources. flag The vote extends MINURSO’s mandate for one year and directs a strategic review within six months. flag The U.S. and several Western nations support the plan, while Algeria and the Polisario Front reject it, demanding a self-determination referendum. flag The outcome reflects growing international recognition of Morocco’s position, though the conflict remains unresolved.
