Submitted on

London, November 3, 2014 (SPS) - British channel BBC shed light Friday on the systematic looting natural resources in the occupied territories of Western Sahara by international companies in complicity with the Moroccan state of occupation through illegal agreements.

 

 In this context, the report highlighted the exploration operations which Cosmos Energy company intends to carry out in the off shores of the occupied Western Sahara, focusing on the legal status of the territory as it is on the United Nations list of Non-Self-Governing Territories.  

 

 The report reviewed the extensive protest campaigns carried out by the Sahrawis to denounce the illegal activities carried out by these companies in the occupied territories of Western Sahara, such as the protest letter sent by the Sahrawi associations to Cosmos Energy company.

 

It should be recalled, the British Parliament had last week raised the looting issue and the complicity of foreign companies with the Moroccan occupation authorities in these illegal activities. (SPS)
