Polisario Front Abandons Independence Ultimatum Under US Mediation Pressure

The Polisario Front, represented by its pseudo-foreign minister, Mohamed Yeslem Beisat, has renounced making independence the only option during the 50th anniversary commemoration of the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic. This statement marks a significant turning point for a movement that has based its existence on the quest for independence for fifty years. The pressure of geopolitical reality and the US-led negotiating framework anchored in Morocco's Autonomy Plan have led to this concession.
