Rome March 27, 2012 (SPS) - The cause of the Saharawi people is almost forgotten by the international community, said Tuesday in Rome bureau chief for regional humanitarian protection from the High Commissioner for Refugees United Nations (UNHCR).
"I feel that the cause of the Saharawi people and the Sahrawi refugees in Tindouf (southern Algeria) is almost forgotten by the international community, "the official said in a statement to the Algerian News Agency (APS) following the visit of the delegation present in Italy as part of a study mission.
For the UN official, "the situation of these Sahrawi refugees for 35 years must be resolved by the International community mobilization and a greater interest in this important issue." (SPS)
