Montevideo (Uruguay), Oct 27, 2017 (SPS) - The Catholic University of Uruguay organized a conference on the evolution of the Saharawi-Moroccan conflict on Wednesday, as well as a photographic exhibition on the Saharawi Arab Democratic Republic.
The conference offered by the Saharawi ambassador in Uruguay, Chaibani Abbas, and the president of the Uruguayan Friendship Association with the SADR, Emiliano Gómez, emphasized the main stages of the conflict, the attempts at settlement and the obstacles imposed by Morocco to impede the application of international law.
Simultaneously, the Catholic University of Uruguay offered its students an extensive photographic exhibition on the struggle of the Saharawi people, their identity, culture and process of building a sovereign state over the territory of Western Sahara.
It should be noted that the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic and the Eastern Republic of Uruguay are united by strong diplomatic relations, which are reflected in the clear support of Uruguay to the Saharawi cause in the main international forums, mainly in the Security Council of Nations United Nations and in the Decolonization Committee.
