The Secretary General of the Congresses Party for Democracy in Lesotho (in power), Mpho Malie, estimated on Thursday that “any solution to the conflict of Western Sahara must respect the principle of people’s of self-determination”, but also respect the African Union’s rule that imposes “the respect of the borders inherited from the colonial era”, a source from the Saharawi Embassy in Pretoria indicated.
Mr. Malie, who was receiving the Saharawi Ambassador in South Africa, Oubi Bouchraya Bachir, affirmed tat his party “support in a firm way the Saharawi people’s cause”, the same source indicated.
“Such a solution will definitively put an end to the tendencies of expansion and prevent the continent from alien and colonialist occupations”, Mr. Mpho Malie stressed.
On his side the Saharawi Ambassador explained to his interlocutor the latest developments in the conflict of Western Sahara, stressing that the “Saharawi people is attached more than ever to its inalienable right to self-determination”.
“The Moroccan proposition is unilateral and reveals the Moroccan intention to continue plotting like the colonial powers that preceded it”, Mr. Oubi Bouchraya Bachir.
The Saharawi Ambassador was received before by the Deputy Prime Minister of Lesotho at the seat of the Foreign Affairs Ministry in the presence of Lesotho’s officials within the framework of a visit he undertakes to this kingdom, it should be recalled.
