Buenos Aires , 21 June 2024 (SPS) - Journalists and media professionals gathered at the headquarters of the Workers' Central in the Argentine capital, Buenos Aires, to unify efforts and establish a media network to disseminate developments in Western Sahara, the last colony in Africa, in Argentine media.
This initiative came on the sidelines of the first international media conference in solidarity with the Sahrawi people, which was held last May in the Sahrawi refugee camps, where the Union of Solidarity Journalists and Media Professionals with the Sahrawi Cause was established.
The first international media conference was attended by Argentine journalist Fernando Duclós, who contributed to promoting this media network in Argentina, providing details about his participation in this event and the situation of the struggling Sahrawi people.
For her part, the President of the Free Sahara Association, Lorena Lores, said: "We are seeking to expand the circle of solidarity and sympathy with the Sahrawi people and its just cause in Argentina, and we call on everyone to join this initiative to break the media blockade imposed by Morocco."
