Nasser Bourita’s Visit to the U.S.: Affirmation of American Support for Moroccan Sovereignty over the Sahara

During his recent visit to the United States, Moroccan Foreign Minister Nasser Bourita held significant discussions with his American counterpart, Marco Rubio. In this meeting, Rubio reaffirmed the United States’ support for Morocco’s claim over the Sahara and the Moroccan autonomy initiative.

Washington views the autonomy plan as the only fair and sustainable solution to resolve this ongoing dispute. According to Rubio, former President Donald Trump urged all concerned parties to engage in immediate discussions, presenting Morocco’s autonomy proposal as the singular framework to achieve a mutually acceptable resolution.
