The Ambassador of the Sahrawi Republic to Algeria, Mr. Khatri Adouh, praised on Monday Algeria's stance, noting that it "constantly works to keep the cause of the Sahrawi people alive in memories and consciences," reflecting its commitment to supporting just causes.
In an address delivered at the opening of a scientific colloquium on "The Western Sahara Question: Historical Roots, Current Situation, and Prospects in Light of International Changes," organized by the National Institute for Global Strategic Studies (INESG) in coordination with the Sahrawi Center for Strategic Studies, Mr. Adouh specified that this position "draws its source from the spirit and principles of the glorious November Revolution" and embodies "the doctrine of liberation and freedom in which the brotherly Algerian people believed, for which they sacrificed, and to which they remained committed."
This meeting "confirms and reiterates the strong position of Algeria under the leadership of the President of the Republic, Mr. Abdelmadjid Tebboune," the ambassador added, noting that the colloquium represents "a rich contribution to the analysis, research, and illumination of the struggle of the Sahrawi people, their path to liberation, and their just cause, which has persisted for over seventy years."
For her part, the representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Director General for Strategic Monitoring, Foresight, and Crisis Management, Mrs. Nassima Baghli, indicated that Algeria's position on the Western Sahara question "has always been consistent and clear" as a decolonization issue. She emphasized that its resolution "must imperatively go through the exercise by the Sahrawi people of their right to self-determination in accordance with the relevant United Nations Charter."
The Director General of INESG, Mr. Abdelaziz Medjahed, stated that the colloquium's rich program would allow for a comprehensive study of the Western Sahara question, faithfully recalling its history and opening debate on various related perspectives and analyses.
This gathering is an opportunity to examine the Sahrawi issue in depth, describing it as a "cause of conscience," he added, specifying that "it is not only the cause of the Sahrawi people, but that of all free men across the world."
For his part, the President of the Sahrawi Center for Strategic Studies, Sidi Mohamed Aba Mohamed, declared that the Western Sahara question "remains a decolonization issue on the United Nations agenda," calling for accelerating the implementation of international legitimacy resolutions and enabling the Sahrawi people to exercise their right to self-determination.
