The Republic of Zambia has reiterated its support for Morocco’s territorial integrity and sovereignty over all its territory, including the Moroccan Sahara, underlining the relevance of the Moroccan Autonomy Plan as the “only credible, serious and realistic solution”.
This position was expressed in a Joint Communiqué published following talks between Morocco’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccan Expatriates, Nasser Bourita, and Zambian Minister of Justice, Acting Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, Mulambo Haimbe.
In this Joint Communiqué, Haimbe reiterated his country’s “full support” to the Moroccan Autonomy Plan presented by the Kingdom of Morocco, as the “only credible, serious and realistic solution”.
He also commended the efforts of the United Nations as the exclusive framework for reaching a realistic, practical, and lasting solution to the dispute over the Moroccan Sahara.
For his part, Bourita welcomed the “positive value” of this decision, hailing the positive development in the relations between the two brotherly countries over the years by the opening, in October 2020, of the Embassy of Zambia in Rabat and its General Consulate in Laâyoune.
Also recognized was Zambia’s participation in January 15th, 2021, in the Ministerial Conference in Support of the Initiative of Autonomy under the Sovereignty of Morocco, at the invitation of the Kingdom of Morocco and the United States of America.
