The Institutional Revolutionary Party in Mexico has declared its support for Morocco’s sovereignty over Western Sahara, marking a shift from its past recognition of the Polisario separatist front. This decision was made during a meeting with Moroccan officials and emphasizes Mexico’s commitment to peaceful conflict resolution. The launch of the Mexican Observatory for Moroccan Sahara aims to strengthen bilateral relations and international support for Morocco’s territorial claims.
Morocco’s efforts in diplomacy across Latin America are yielding significant results, as evidenced by Mexico’s Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) expressing support for Morocco’s sovereignty over Western Sahara. PRI’s President Alejandro Moreno announced this stance, marking a notable shift from the party’s previous recognition of the Polisario separatist front in 1979. Moreno emphasized this support aligns with the party’s evolving international relations and commitment to global stability.
During his visit to Mexico City, Moroccan House of Representatives President Rachid Talbi Alami engaged in discussions with PRI leaders, which contributed to the party’s decision. Moreno highlighted the importance of promoting peaceful resolutions in a developing multipolar world context. Additionally, Deputy Marcela Guerra of the PRI advocated for enhancing relations between Morocco and Mexico, recognizing their strategic significance in their respective regions.
Guerra mentioned the two countries’ capacities to act as key gateways for trade and stability between Africa and the Americas, pointing to their 60 years of diplomatic ties. She underscored the benefits of various cooperation agreements that have been established over the decades. The recent establishment of the Mexican Observatory for Moroccan Sahara signifies a dedicated platform aimed at enhancing awareness and advocacy for Morocco’s territorial claims.
The Observatory is set to promote bilateral relations, coinciding with increasing international backing for Morocco’s autonomy plan regarding Western Sahara. This reflects a broader recognition within Latin America of the changing dynamics in international support for territorial integrity and conflict resolution related to the region.
The Institutional Revolutionary Party’s new endorsement of Morocco’s sovereignty over Western Sahara marks a significant shift in Mexico’s foreign policy. This development illustrates the growing international recognition of Morocco’s autonomy plan and highlights the potential for strengthened relations between Morocco and Mexico, based on shared strategic interests and historical ties. The establishment of the Mexican Observatory for Moroccan Sahara further reinforces these commitments and the importance of stable, peaceful relations.
