Taroudant, Morocco- The former Moroccan Foreign Minister Saad Eddine Otmani proposed Friday in the southern Moroccan city of Dakhla that the Sahara be called the “Moroccan Western Sahara”.

The former Minister wrote on his Facebook account that “many of the people in the region have shown special interest and some of them commended my proposal to call it: the Moroccan Western Sahara”

At a meeting on the first regional forum of the youth of the Justice and Development Party of the region of Oued Ed-Dahab & Lagouira, the former minister engaged in an “animated debate on national issues with more focus on the Sahara issue.”

“We have the Eastern Sahara, and the Western Sahara, and both are Moroccans” Otmani said on his twitter account.
