This approach “consists of proposing the autonomy solution as a way out of the crisis, through roundtables that involve all partners in this regional discord, Algeria in the lead,” said Tossa in an analysis entitled ”Autonomy confirmed, Algeria stakeholder”, published on Friday on the website “Atlasinfo.fr”.

According to the political expert, “it is a Moroccan victory from the moment the Security Council adopts the Moroccan diplomatic lexicon, which makes a compromise solution negotiated under Moroccan sovereignty the only track of reflection and action in this conflict. It removes any reference to the referendum on self-determination from its political semiology.”

The Moroccan political achievement, he notes, has been to “make sure to render obsolete, inoperative, impertinent, even inaudible concepts that the Algerian propaganda used as weapons of pressure and intimidation.”

In the end and given the number and weight of recognitions and openings of diplomatic offices in Dakhla and Laayoune, Morocco had already won the diplomatic battle, Tossa noted.

According to him, among other positive points of this resolution is the almost mechanical insistence to involve Algeria in any solution of this conflict, adding that “the Algerian strategy has always been to deny being a stakeholder in this conflict,” while in reality, the separatism only exists because of the Algerian military will.

“Algiers puts at the disposal of the polisario its diplomatic system, its military resources and puts it in a position to be a permanent threat to the stability and territorial unity of Morocco and the entire region,” he said.

“Morocco is right to welcome this resolution and the international political atmosphere it creates around this conflict. The international community is closer to recognizing Moroccan sovereignty over the Sahara than any other option defended by Algeria. It is thus gaining years of diplomatic work to convince reluctant countries of the viability of its choices,” he said.

The additional year granted to Minurso will undoubtedly allow Stafan Di Mistura to try to convince both the polisario and the Algerian regime that there is no better solution than the autonomy proposed by Morocco, said the political expert.
