Shaheed Al Hafed (refugee camp) May 21, 2010 (SPS) - “All the national options including the resumption for armed struggle remain obtainable,” the Spokesman for the Saharawi National Council, Mr. Khatri Addouh, confirmed in a lecture marking the 38th anniversary of the outbreak of armed struggle and 6th anniversary of the Intifada of Independence in occupied Western Sahara.
“Struggle and unity of the Saharawi people have forced the Moroccan occupation and international community to recognize the Polisario Front as sole representative for the Saharawis,” Mr. Addouh said, adding the Polisario Front’s acceptance to negotiate with Morocco under UN auspices is an “explicit proof that the Polisario is the sole and legitimate representative of the Saharawi people.”
"The repression and regional as well as international variables will not discourage the Saharawis to achieve their national independence and build a country, where the Saharawis can enjoy their full political, social, economic and humanitarian rights like all peoples of the world,” he added.
President of the Saharawi negotiating delegation called on the Moroccan occupation authorities to release more than 500 Saharawi political detainees and tens of the Saharawi human rights activists, who are facing different kinds of ill-treating torture.
He also delivered, on behalf of the Saharawi leadership, tribute of admiration to the Saharawi People’s Liberation Army and all the Saharawi militants in the occupied territories of Western Sahara and south of Morocco. (SPS)
