New York, Oct 13, 2021 (SPS) - Western Sahara is a case of decolonization and illegal military occupation, pleaded the petitioners, defenders of the right to self-determination of the Saharawi people at the Fourth UN Commission.
They deplored the absence of protection mechanisms for Saharawi citizens due to Morocco's refusal to allow observers to access the occupied territories.
A total of 66 petitioners traveled to New York to participate in the general debate on issues relating to decolonization and to speak out on the issue of Western Sahara. SPS
