\nKing Mohammed VI of Morocco – PHOTO\/MAP<\/p>\n
Just as a good player skilfully breaks away on the pitch, positioning himself and winning applause from the stands, because he will be able to score goals or pass to others to score them, so did Morocco, looking at the war raging in the Persian Gulf, by coming out in political and diplomatic defence of Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Oman, which were targets of Iran’s reprisals after the United States and Israel began bombing Iranian territory, considering them their allies.<\/p>\n
Beyond the undeniable fact that Morocco, with King Mohammed VI at its head, has once again won the approval of the US \u2013 the unmistakable rock-solid alliance between the two countries has just been reconfirmed \u2013 to the extent that Washington is gaining support from other powerful states (the United Kingdom, France, Germany, etc.), in its goal of overthrowing the theocratic regime in Tehran, it is very clear that the US has taken on a leading role, as never before, in the issue of Western Sahara, leading the substantive negotiations, always within the framework of UN Security Council Resolution 2797 (31 October 2025), which has established and defined autonomy as the realistic, serious and credible basis for the aforementioned negotiations between the four parties to the problem, i.e. Morocco, the Polisario Front, Algeria and Mauritania.<\/p>\n
Undoubtedly, Rabat’s position is reflected in three ways, looking at the initial situation. Thus, its attitude of solidarity with the countries of the Persian Gulf – as well as Jordan – attacked by Tehran has highlighted Morocco’s international empowerment within the Arab League, the African Union (especially in the Maghreb and the difficult Sahel), and the UN (which includes us), that is, the global forums where its highly skilled diplomacy operates, in accordance with the measured foreign policy directed by its Alawite monarch.<\/p>\n

Morocco \u2013 including its Sahrawi populations living in the Southern Provinces \u2013 could not appear indifferent, and the attitude of Mohamed VI’s state is reminiscent of the pan-Arabism of the mid-20th century, in the strict sense of closing ranks with sister nations, that is, those of the same blood and culture.<\/p>\n
On the other side of the field lies Algeria, Morocco’s neighbour, unable to make any passes and, worse still, receiving none from anyone, dramatically forgotten or ignored. The Algerian regime should evaluate its attitude in the negotiations that will continue unabated on the Moroccan Sahara, warned that it has no power to impose conditions at the table.<\/p>\n
Russia and China, its allies of the past, are watching the war from afar or from the sidelines – North Korea is vociferous on Beijing’s instructions – because they have their own priorities – Russia, the outcome of the war with Ukraine, and China, its unstoppable economic growth – and knowing that US military power deters them, they are acting as they did with Venezuela.<\/p>\n
Algeria must be looking at itself in the mirror of the decimated regime of the ayatollahs, forced to stop moving on the Sahara negotiations field, alone and reluctantly.<\/p>\n
