The United States has again shown its strong support for Morocco's autonomy plan for Western Sahara as the most "serious, credible and realistic", with a potential approach to meeting the aspirations of the Sahrawi people, in order to resolve a conflict that has lasted more than four decades since Spain's departure that ended the colonial era in the area. "The United States continues to view Morocco's autonomy plan as serious, credible and realistic," an official statement from the US Embassy in Rabat said after Joshua Harris' meeting with Nasser Bourita. The senior US official, who was accompanied by the US Ambassador to Morocco, Puneet Talwar, also 'reaffirmed the deep and historic partnership between the United States and Morocco', as the US Embassy indicated. Morocco proposes for Western Sahara a formula of broad autonomy under Moroccan sovereignty that envisages a large degree of self-government for the Saharawis, reserving security and foreign policy powers for the Moroccan state, all while respecting UN resolutions. This initiative has received much international support from countries such as the United States, Israel, the United Arab Emirates, Germany and Spain, which consider it to be the most serious, credible and realistic way of resolving the problem of the territory.
