Johanesburg, July 4, 2015 (SPS) - The South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) public news channel devoted Wednesday a coverage to aspects of the Saharawi issue and the efforts led by the African Union (AU) in order to complete the decolonization of the last African colony.

 

SABC news evoked the concerns of the AU at the continuation of the Moroccan occupation to Saharawi territories, stressing the position of the AU on the Western Sahara conflict and the support for the right of the Sahrawi people and their just cause.  

 

The news channel recalled the strong support of influential countries in the continent, led by South Africa, which support the efforts led by the African Union Commission and the United Nations to find a solution to this issue.

 

It pointed out that Western Sahara is the only country in the African continent, which is still under occupation, on the list of the United Nations as a question of decolonization. (SPS)
