Sahara: Peruvian Congress Exhorts Government to Support Morocco, Warns of Polisario Terrorist Threats
Doha – The Peruvian Congress has forcefully demanded its government to back Morocco's complete sovereignty over the Sahara, while exposing the dangerous terrorist connections and criminal operations of the Polisario Front – a puppet organization manipulated by the Algerian regime. In a motion adopted by an overwhelming majority on Monday, the Peruvian legislative body commanded the executive branch to 'adopt a position of support to the sovereignty of the Kingdom of Morocco over the Western Sahara,' as stated in the text presented by Congresswoman Carmen Patricia Juarez Gallegos, First Vice-President of the Congress. The motion hailed ties with Rabat since 1964 and declared Morocco's autonomy proposal as a 'serious solution in conformity with international law.' Peruvian lawmakers asserted that Morocco's 2007 initiative 'has received the support of numerous countries, among which the United States of America, the Kingdom of Spain and the Republic of France, which have recognized said proposal as the most realistic and viable basis for a lasting solution to the conflict.' The Congress blasted the Polisario Front for its treacherous alliances with terrorist networks. The motion exposes to the international community 'the Polisario's links with terrorist organizations such as Hezbollah, as well as with networks trafficking arms and persons, and the exploitation of minors in the Tindouf camps.' It demands international bodies to 'investigate these crimes and sanction them.' The motion slams the Polisario Front, which exists solely in the Tindouf camps on Algerian soil where it imprisons hostages under the watchful eye of its Algerian masters. The fraudulent 'SADR' remains nothing more than a phantom entity, a fictional creation sustained by the hostile Algerian regime in its desperate campaign against Morocco's territorial integrity. 'The Polisario is implicated in serious violations of human rights that constitute threats to regional and international security,' the motion thunders, adding that 'various reports from international think tanks have warned against attempts by the Tehran-Hezbollah-Polisario axis to destabilize North Africa and the Maghreb through ideological infiltration, financing of radical activities, and proliferation of weapons in the region.' Last March, Peru's Congress passed another motion urging the country's Foreign Ministry to express clear support for Morocco's Autonomy Plan. The document, introduced by legislators Maria Del Carmen Alva Prieto and Ernesto Bustamante Donayre, referenced the plan's widespread international backing from over 120 countries and cited UN Security Council Resolution 2756 from October 2024. In April, Keiko Fujimori, leader of Peru's Popular Force party, voiced her party's absolute support for Morocco's sovereignty during a visit to Rabat, where she met with Rachid Talbi El Alami, President of the Moroccan House of Representatives. This diplomatic pivot follows Peru's decision in September 2023 to sever ties with the self-proclaimed 'SADR,' a bogus entity fabricated by the deceptive Polisario Front and its Algerian sponsors. Peru had briefly reestablished these misguided ties under former leftist President Pedro Castillo – a political outsider who presided over a government in disarray, struggling to return stability to Lima after years of public discontent and large-scale riots – before rectifying this error. The Congress reaffirmed Peru's dedication to defending human rights, combating terrorism, and building diplomatic relations with countries that advance peace, security, and development, while rejecting the destabilizing schemes of the Algerian-backed separatist faction that threatens regional stability. Morocco maintains full control of its Sahara territories, implementing an ambitious development plan while the Algeria-financed Polisario languishes in isolated camps, holding people against their will and engaging in criminal activities under the protection of the Algerian military.

Peruvian Congress Backs Morocco's Autonomy Plan for Western Sahara
Rabat – Peru's Congress has urged the country's Foreign Ministry to express clear support for Morocco's Autonomy Plan for the Western Sahara, describing it as the most credible and viable path toward a lasting resolution of the dispute. In a motion passed by an overwhelming majority, lawmakers called on Peru's government to advocate for the initiative on the international stage. The motion notes the importance of dialogue and cooperation in settling the issue while focusing on the broader impact of the dispute on regional development. According to the document, the prolonged nature of the dispute has delayed long-overdue economic and political integration in the Maghreb. Lawmakers urged all parties to return to the UN-led roundtable process with a spirit of mutual respect and open communication and aim for a realistic and consensual political settlement. Introduced by legislators Maria Del Carmen Alva Prieto and Ernesto Bustamante Donayre, the motion recalls that Morocco's Autonomy Plan has gained recognition as the only serious and credible basis for resolving the dispute. Peruvian lawmakers pointed to the broad international backing for the plan, with more than 120 countries, including Spain, the United States, France, Brazil, and Chile, publicly endorsing it. They stressed the proposal's role in fostering stability and economic growth in North Africa, aligning with the shared interests of the global community. The document further references UN Security Council Resolution 2756, adopted on October 30, 2024, which acknowledges Morocco's efforts in advancing a final and peaceful resolution. The motion further affirms that Peru, as a country committed to upholding the sovereignty and territorial integrity of states, has a duty to stand behind Morocco's Autonomy Plan.
