Ecuador Suspends Recognition of Sadr   

Accra, Oct. 24, GNA- The Republic of Ecuador has suspended its recognition of “Sadr,” initially acknowledged in 1983 with the establishment of an embassy in 2009.  

Ecuador’s Foreign Minister, Gabriela Sommerfeld, conveyed the decision to her Moroccan counterpart, Nasser Bourita, during a phone call.    

She also confirmed that a notification letter had been sent to the representation of the separatists in Quito.   

This decision aligns with the momentum driven by His Majesty King Mohammed VI in recent years, to enshrine the Moroccan sovereignty over the Sahara and the Autonomy Plan as the sole basis for resolving this regional dispute.   

Ecuador’s decision to suspend its recognition of the “Sadr” opens a new chapter in relations between the Kingdom of Morocco and the Latin American country.
