Algiers, Dec 14, 2014, (SPS)- Drugs coming from Morocco represent a “real threat” for peace and security in the region and in the world said, Saturday in Algiers, the President of the republic Mohamed Abdelaziz, recalling that the kingdom is the “biggest” producer and exporter of cannabis.

 

Speaking at the opening of the fifth international conference of Algiers on “the people’s rights to resistance: Sahrawi people’s case,” Abdelaziz said that because of this situation, the Moroccan kingdom “contributes to the financing and encouragement of organized criminality and transnational terrorism”.

 

In this regard, Morocco “is a real threat to peace and stability in the region and in the world,” he said, accusing the kingdom of practicing an “expansionist policy” towards its neighbours.

 

“The Polisario Front is the legitimate representative of the Sahrawi people in its fight for independence, far from all forms of extremism or terrorism,” he underlined.

 

The President hailed Algeria’s position “which continues to express its unfailing support” towards the Sahrawi cause, in the same way as “all the just causes in the world, in conformity with the United Nations charter”. (SPS)
