Moroccan Sahara: The Czech Republic Considers Genuine Autonomy Under Moroccan Sovereignty the Most Feasible Solution

This position was expressed in the Joint Declaration, signed in Rabat, following the meeting between Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccan Expatriates Nasser Bourita and Czech Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Petr Macinka, who is visiting the Kingdom for the first time.

The Joint Declaration specifies that the Ambassador of the Czech Republic to Morocco will travel to the Sahara region to prepare visits by Czech entrepreneurs and support joint economic initiatives
Furthermore, it underlines that the Embassy of the Czech Republic in Rabat will henceforth extend its consular coverage to the Sahara, as it does to the rest of the Kingdom’s territory, thereby acting in accordance with the Czech Republic’s position on the Moroccan Sahara at the diplomatic, economic and consular levels.

Welcoming the adoption of United Nations Security Council Resolution 2797 (2025), the Czech Republic "considers Morocco’s 2007 autonomy Proposal as the most appropriate, serious, credible and realistic basis for achieving a just, lasting and mutually acceptable political solution," the Joint Declaration continues.

The two Ministers also reaffirmed their support for the Personal Envoy of the United Nations Secretary-General for the Sahara, as well as for his efforts to advance the political process with a view to reaching a definitive political solution to this regional dispute.
