Morocco's king orders tight security as Western Sahara mission ends
Original: Africa’s wealthiest monarch orders firm security measures after Russia blocks US plan and UN’s 35-year Western Sahara mission ends
King Mohammed VI of Morocco, often described as Africa's wealthiest monarch, has ordered firm security measures after Russia blocked a US-backed plan and the United Nations wound down its 35-year peacekeeping mission in Western Sahara. The end of MINURSO's mandate revives uncertainty over the disputed territory's status, prompting Morocco to reinforce stability and border security.
Why now: The abrupt end of the UN's long-running Western Sahara mission and Russia's veto of the US plan have raised fears of renewed instability in the disputed region.
