The French Foreign Ministry has updated its official map to include Western Sahara as part of Moroccan territory. This move aligns with French President Emmanuel Macron’s recent affirmation that the future of Western Sahara lies within Moroccan sovereignty.
Moroccan Foreign Minister Nasser Bourita expressed satisfaction with the development, stating that it marks a new era in Franco-Moroccan relations. He emphasized that the two countries share a strong partnership and will continue to collaborate on issues of mutual interest, including regional stability and economic development.
The updated map signifies France’s support for Morocco’s territorial integrity and the Moroccan autonomy plan as the sole solution to the Western Sahara conflict. This development is expected to further strengthen the bilateral relationship and open new avenues for cooperation between the two countries.
