The autonomy plan submitted by Morocco to settle the artificial conflict over its territorial integrity is the "most credible and widely endorsed" proposal for resolving this regional dispute, stated on Wednesday the Cambridge Middle East and North Africa Forum (MENAF), a think-tank reporting to the prestigious University of Cambridge.

The United States reaffirmed on Tuesday its support for the Moroccan autonomy initiative as a "serious, credible, and realistic" solution to the regional dispute over the Sahara.

Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccan Expatriates, Nasser Bourita, held talks on Sunday in New York, on the sidelines of the 79th session of the UN General Assembly, with the Personal Envoy of the UN Secretary-General for the Moroccan Sahara, Staffan de Mistura, on the latter’s request, says a press release from the Permanent Mission of Morocco to the United Nations.

The growing international momentum in favor of the Moroccan Sahara confirms the irreversibility of a political solution to this regional dispute based exclusively on the autonomy plan and within the framework of the Kingdom's national sovereignty and territorial integrity, Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccans Abroad, Nasser Bourita, said on Friday.

The Netherlands reiterated, Thursday in New York, its support for the Moroccan autonomy plan, deeming it a "very serious and credible" contribution to the political process led by the United Nations.
