Madrid, July 29, 2012 (SPS) - “Polisario Front has no idea about any imminent danger against the humanitarian aid workers in the Saharawi refugee camps,” the POLISARIO Representative to Spain, Mr. Bachraya Bayun, told Saturday Spanish Radio “Cadena SER”, highlighting “there is no justification explains Spanish government’s decision to repatriate the cooperators from the camps.”


“There has not occurred any change regarding the situation in the camps, despite the fact that terrorism has become a phenomenon threatening every country, and widely prevailing in the neighboring countries like Mali and Mauritania,” added Mr. Bayun.


The Representative expressed regret of the Polisario Front and Saharawi people to such decision, which according to him “will negatively reflect lives of the Saharawi refugees,” adding that “a bowing to a blackmail practiced by terrorism and thus responds to the goals of Moroccan occupation.”


He also indicated that the absence of Spanish organizations and bodies will create “a huge vacuum” in the support of Saharawi institutions in various special antibiotics areas such as nutrition, health, water…etc, which hugely contribute in the humanitarian assistance provided for the Saharawi refugees.
