The Polisario Front has made public this Tuesday that it is entering a state of “general mobilization” to face the “Moroccan expansionist occupier,” ten days after the mandate of the UN mission in Western Sahara expired, following the failure of draft resolutions pushed by the United States and Russia at the Security Council.
In an urgent meeting, the president of the self-proclaimed Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic and top leader of the Polisario Front, Brahim Gali, “decided to declare the state of general mobilization” and issues a call “to all sons and daughters of the Sahrawi people to prepare fully for all the enemy’s plots and maneuvers.
Gali insists on the need to close ranks around this mobilization in order to “overcome all challenges, and continue with the legacy of the martyrs, defending the land, honor and the free elections of our people in freedom, self-determination and independence”.
At the same time, the Polisario extends its appeal to neighboring peoples to stand up to “the Moroccan expansionist aggression that threatens the security of all of us, the stability of our countries and the integrity of our lands”.
