Disputed Corner of the Sahara
Caption Description
The narrow strip of desert in north-west Africa known as Western or Spanish Sahara is presently ruled as an overseas province of Spain. It is the last outpost of colonialism on the area, the only corner of the vast Desert that is not part of an independent State. Spain has recently indicated its willingness to transfer power to the people of Sahara. But the transfer of power has been complicated by the conflicting claims and interests of three neighboring countries: Morocco, Mauritania and Algeria. In May this year a three-member mission of the UN Special Committee on Decolonization visited the area to gather first-hand information on the situation. In the course of more than a month’s travelling, the Mission members talked to a wide cross-section of the people involved in the Territory’s fate: government officials in Spain, Morocco, Mauritania, and Algeria as well as in the Territory itself, sheiks and notables, mothers and wives, refugees and political prisoners, members of the only legal political party active in the Territory, the Partido de la Union Nacional Saharaui (PUNS), and of the clandestine liberation movement, the Frente Popular para la Liberacion de Saguia el Hamra y de Rio de Oro, popularly known as Frente Polasario, as well as representatives of other political groups and liberation movements active in the three neighboring countries. The Mission’s report will be taken up by the UN General Assembly at its 30th session beginning in September.
