"Colombia Announces Recognition Of Morocco’s Sovereignty Over Sahara, Marking A Shift In Its Position
Colombia has recognized Morocco’s sovereignty over the Sahara territory and withdrawn its recognition of the Polisario’s separatist and Algeria-based entity known as Sahrawi republic.
The news came in a Moroccan foreign ministry statement, describing the Colombian position as a major shift.
Colombian Foreign Minister Omar Bula Escobar affirmed the decision during talks with Moroccan Foreign Minister Nasser Bourita, attended by Colombian Vice President Jose Manuel Restrepo, according to the Moroccan foreign ministry.
The decision marks a 'new departure' in relations between Colombia and Morocco, Restrepo said, describing Morocco as Colombia’s 'first ally in Africa' and expressing his country’s desire to establish a strategic partnership with the North African kingdom.
Morocco welcomed the announcement as an 'historic' decision that could give a major boost to bilateral relations, Bourita said.
Rabat has won growing international backing in recent years for its proposal to grant the territory autonomy under Moroccan sovereignty. The United States, France and a growing number of other countries have backed Morocco’s autonomy plan, while the United Nations called- in its latest Security Council resolution- on the parties to negotiate on the basis of the autonomy plan."

https://www.dw.com/en/un-security-council-backs-morocco-plan-for-western-sahara/a-74579654. This is #Trump supported #imperialism, which completely ignores the wishes of the people of #WesternSahara. If #Algeria has reasons of its own for supporting the #Polisario Front, that may well be because of its support for #national #liberation struggles like its own from #France, & fear of regional domination by #Morocco, see: https://theconversation.com/western-sahara-why-algeria-supports-the-sahrawis-right-to-govern-themselves-260719; https://theconversation.com/western-sahara-the-six-decade-struggle-to-liberate-africas-last-colony-192654.

Arbejderen ved Vestsahara:
Den saharawiske frihedsbevægelse Polisario fortsætter den væbnede kamp mod Marokko, der benytter israelsk spyware og lokker Vesten med handelsmuligheder for at vende det blinde øje til besættelsen af Vestsahara. Mange saharawier ser nyt håb i en ny multipolær verdensorden, der ikke bliver domineret af USA og Vesten.

Arbejderen har været på besøg i flygtningelejrene ledet af den saharawiske frihedsbevægelse Polisario, der kæmper mod besættelsesmagten Marokko. Under barske betingelser har saharawierne formået at opbygge et velorganiseret samfund i lejrene ved Vestsahara.

« Soutenue par les États-Unis, la France et Israël, l'armée marocaine bombarde au napalm et au phosphore blanc civils et rebelles #Sahraouis. Les trois quarts de la population autochtone se réfugient alors en Algérie. Dans la région de Tindouf, d'immenses camps précaires se forment au beau milieu d'un désert aride, aux rares réserves d'eau salées, où personne ne vit et rien ne pousse. »

#Israel may be about to export its workhorse #Merkava tank for the first time.
Reports say Israel is in talks to sell the tank to a European and a Middle Eastern country.The European nation in question is actually #Cyprus, according to Israeli newspaper #Haaretz, which in June cited an unnamed Cypriot official who said negotiations are underway. The Arab nation is #Morocco, Spanish outlet El Espanol reported this month.
Exporting the Merkava raises sensitive political issues. For Morocco, acquiring an Israeli tank would be a highly visible symbol of its relatively cordial relationship with Israel. Morocco is also fighting #Polisario insurgents, who are backed by neighboring Algeria, in the Western #Sahara. This raises the possibility of one Arab state employing Israeli arms against another.
With Cyprus, Israel would be selling tanks to a nation that has tense relations with #Turkey, which invaded the northern half of Cyprus in 1974. Relations between Israel and the government of Turkish President Recep #Erdogan are often contentious. (The US ending its longstanding arms embargo on Cyprus in 2022 also triggered speculation that Cyprus' Russian-made arms could go to #Ukraine.)
Nonetheless, the timing is propitious for Israel. #Russia's invasion of Ukraine has spurred Europe to rearm its depleted militaries. Eastern European nations are sending many of their aging #Soviet- and Russian-designed tanks to the Ukrainians, which means the donors will be shopping for affordable replacements — likely older tanks with a non-Russian design.
The question is whether Israel will sell Merkavas to Ukraine. For now, the answer is no. Israel is wary of antagonizing Russia, for fear that Russian forces in #Syria will interfere with Israel's airstrikes against Iranian and #Hezbollah targets there. Russia can also send advanced weapons, particularly S-400 anti-aircraft missiles, to Israel's arch-enemy, #Iran.
