Morocco "somehow responsible" for blocking negotiations with Polisario Font (Medelci)
Algiers, March 10, 2011 (SPS) - The Algerian Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mr. Mourad Medelci, said in a daily national newspaper published Thursday that Morocco is "somehow responsible" for blocking the process of negotiations with the Polisario Front.
The responsibility for blocking the process of negotiations between the Polisario Front and Morocco falls on this last one, said Medelci in an interview with the Arabic-newspaper El-Khabar, stressing that Algeria is "not satisfied" with the outcome of the negotiations process.
The Chief of Algerian diplomacy said that negotiations between both parties (Morocco and Polisario Front), "have made no progress despite Algeria's efforts to assist the Personal Envoy of the UN Secretary General for Western Sahara, Christopher Ross, to achieve his mission under the best conditions. "
For the Algerian Minister, Morocco is responsible for this blocking "because it encircles the solution in its approach while rejecting the proposal of the Polisario Front which is also recognized by the UN Security Council."
"I think there is still a tendency among both warring parties apart from the will of Christopher Ross and Secretary General of the United Nations to continue efforts to achieve the results expected by the international community," he supported.
Medelci also indicated that "whatever the weight of the question of Western Sahara, relations between Algeria and Morocco remain very important and valuable" noting that Algeria has "no other intention than to cooperate closely with the brotherly country."
On ways to expand this cooperation, Medelci considered it necessary first to"respect each party's commitment to its principles and positions vis-à-vis the question of Western Sahara".
He noted that Algeria has decided to expand bilateral cooperation in certain sectors deemed sensitive and important such as energy, youth, sport and training.
Algeria "finds no objection to expand in the future this cooperation to other sectors but keeping the file of Western Sahara issue on the table of the UN and that each party respects the vision and position of the other," he specified. (SPS)
