The withdrawal of confidence from the UN Secretary General’s Personal Envoy Christopher Ross will not undermine Morocco’s relations with the UN, Upper House Speaker Mohamed Cheikh Biadillah said.
“Relations between Morocco and the UN and its Secretary General Ban Ki-moon are excellent,” Biadillah said in an interview published on Le Matin daily on Tuesday.
Ross endeavor to give the MINURSO a political role that substitutes Morocco’s territorial administration is inacceptable, said Biadillah, recalling that Morocco put on the table a solution that was described ” as credible and serious” by the international community.
The latest report presented by the UNSG to the Security Council on the Sahara was biased, deplored Biadillah, adding that the mediator sided with the thesis of the adversaries of Morocco’s territorial integrity: Algeria and the Polisario.
He denounced that the serious human rights violations in the camps of Tindouf (south-western Algeria), the need to conduct a census of the population held against their will in the camps and the case of Mustapha Ould Salma Ould Sidi Mouloud were given a blind eye in the report.
Biadillah noted that the report did not even point out to the embezzlement of humanitarian aid by the Polisario administration in the camps.
