Romenio Pereira added that, in this context, "more expressive support for Morocco's autonomy plan can, of course, be considered."
"More expressive support for the autonomy plan presented by Morocco can, of course, be considered, since this autonomy is based on dialogue, on a commitment to international law and will contribute to the well-being of the populations concerned," Romenio Pereira stressed in a statement to MAP.
“I believe that Brazil should continue to support these efforts and initiatives that promote peace and stability in the region,” he said.
According to Mr. Pereira, who will soon visit Morocco, “Brazil maintains a balanced and constructive position on the issue (of the Sahara), while supporting the efforts of the United Nations in the search for a peaceful, consensual and mutually acceptable political solution.”
In this regard, he recalled the support expressed by the Brazilian Senate in June 2023 for the autonomy plan proposed by Morocco in 2007.
He also mentioned the visit of the Brazilian Minister of Foreign Affairs to Rabat, a year later, during which he welcomed the serious and credible efforts made by the Kingdom to move forward towards a settlement of this dispute.
Furthermore, Mr. Pereira described the future of relations between Rabat and Brasilia as “promising,” maintaining that many opportunities for cooperation are available in various areas.
“The recent visits of high-ranking Brazilian representatives to Morocco and the reopening of the Casablanca-Sao Paulo airline (next December) reflect the growing interest in strengthening bilateral relations,” he continued.
“This dynamic,” he concluded, “will strengthen trade and collaboration, particularly in the areas of food security, green economy, tourism, culture and technology. It will also help address the challenges of climate change, to the benefit of both nations.”
