Boris Johnson is one of life’s optimists – it’s one of the reasons why Britons keep giving him the benefit of doubt. And the promise of a ‘Global Britain’ pursuing its new course outside the EU is a suitably grand-sounding project for him. But wishing won’t make it so.
The government’s long-awaited Integrated Review of its defence, foreign affairs, trade and development policy is, once again, long on rhetoric but short on substance. The main message is that the UK is going to shift its focus from Europe to the Indo-Pacific.
It will also spend an additional £16.5 billion on defence over the next four years, take a greater role in NATO, and increase its number of nuclear warheads and champion free trade.
Western Sahara
Thursday 28 January 2021, by Patrick Scott
In its dying days, the Trump administration in the US brokered an agreement between Morocco and Israel. [1] Morocco agreed to recognise and have full diplomatic relations with Israel, the fourth Arab country to do so in recent times after the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Sudan. The US for its part agreed to formally recognise Moroccan sovereignty over Western Sahara. Furthermore the US signed a new arms agreement with Morocco. Western Sahara, on Africa’s Atlantic coast was invaded by neighbouring Morocco in 1975. Polisario, the national liberation movement for the Sahrawi people of the territory, still actively resists the occupation today. [2]
