USA reiterates support for Morocco-proposed Autonomy Plan for the Sahara it views as ‘serious, credible, realistic’

US Deputy Assistant Secretary for North Africa, Joshua Harris, reiterated, on Thursday, from Rabat the United States’ support for the Morocco-proposed autonomy plan as a “serious, credible and realistic” solution to the dispute over the Sahara.

“The United States continues to view Morocco’s Autonomy Plan as serious, credible and realistic,” the US Embassy in Rabat said in a press release following the talks Mr. Harris had with Minister of Foreign Affairs Nasser Bourita.

The senior US official, who was accompanied by US ambassador to Morocco, Puneet Talwar, also “reaffirmed the deep and historic partnership between the United States and Morocco.”

Joshua Harris, whose visit to Rabat is part of a regional tour to “Morocco and Algeria”, also underscored US appreciation for Morocco’s crucial efforts on a wide range of regional and global challenges, including addressing instability in the Sahel, supporting Libyan elections, and promoting equal measures of freedom, security, and prosperity for Israelis and Palestinians.
