Spread the loveI was shocked when I have read the letter sent to the attention of European Parliament Members by the Intergroup for Western Sahara. The letter is not only full of misrepresentations but deliberately ignores so many historical facts and realities surrounding the Western Sahara conflict. The Intergroup letter states that Morocco undertook an “illegal military action” in Guerguerat. What could me more legal, by international law, than guaranteeing the free and safe passage of food and medicine across borders? Finally, while I respect the Intergroup members’ opinion regarding the conflict, I think it is unbecoming of MPs to vilify a country like Morocco and deliberately ignore the above-mentioned truths and realities for pure ideological and propaganda reasons.
