“Major Setback” For The Moroccan Makhzen At The Tokyo International Conference “TICAD 9”

The Sahrawi Foreign Minister, Mr. Mohamed Yeslem Beissat, affirmed that Morocco suffered a “major setback” at the Tokyo International Conference on African Development “TICAD 9”, which began its  proceedings on Wednesday in Yokohama, Japan, not only because of the failure of its attempts to prevent the participation of the Sahrawi Republic, but also because the participants refused to delete a phrase confirming partnerships with African Union member states.

In a statement to “Waj”, Mr. Beissat explained that Morocco tried “repeatedly” to delete a paragraph from the “Yokohama Declaration” on the partnership between Japan and the African Union member states, where it strenuously sought to delete the phrase “member states” which was repeated several times, but it was resisted by most participants and this phrase was retained in the final declaration.
