Ottawa, 23 April 2021 (SPS) - The UN peace process in Western Sahara failed to achieve its goals as Morocco s allies, namely France, Spain and the United States, put their interests ahead of the Sahrawis right to independence, said Vivan Solana, anthropology professor at the University of Ottawa, Canada. The systematic ineffectiveness of the United Nations peace process in Western Sahara can be explained by examining what Morocco s allies (especially France, Spain and the United States) see as opportunities and benefits to be derived from the occupation of Western Sahara, said the scholar in a column recently published on the website of the Middle East Research and Information Project (MERIP), a research group which studies conflicts in the Middle East region.
