In a context of growing tensions in the Sahel, Mauritania intends to go on the offensive to ensure the security of its northern borders in the face of recurring infiltrations by armed militias of the Polisario front. With the help of close cooperation with Morocco and its technology surveillance satellites and financial support from the United Arab Emirates (UAE) for the acquisition of latest generation combat drones, Nouakchott intends to return its borders totally airtightthus breaking attempts at interference and destabilizing actions that fuel regional instability.
Cutting-edge technology for security:
Indeed, Mauritania relies on the most advanced technologies to counter these persistent threats. Thanks to the strategic information provided by Moroccan surveillance satellites, the country will be able to detect in real time any attempted intrusion into its territory. These Moroccan satellites, true gems of modern technology, offer unparalleled precision in tracking suspicious movements, thus enabling a rapid and targeted response.
At the same time, Mauritania is counting on the acquisition of hundreds of latest generation combat drones. These drones, capable of flying long distances and neutralizing all threats at the border, are a major asset for the Mauritanian army. Fully financed by the United Arab Emirates, these devices will offer Mauritania unequaled technological superiority in the region.
A solid alliance to counter Algerian influence:
This military reinforcement is part of a dynamic of strategic cooperation between Mauritania, Morocco and the United Arab Emirates. It illustrates Nouakchott’s firm desire to free yourself from Algerian pressures and of counter the activities of the Polisariosupported by the military regime of Algiers. The Mauritanian authorities no longer hide their exasperation at Algerian attempts at destabilization through their support for these armed militias.
By relying on its new reliable ally and developing its military capabilities, Mauritania is sending a clear message: any attempt to illegally cross its borders will be detected and neutralized without notice.
A firm response to Algerian ambitions:
The locking of the borders between Mauritania and Algeria constitutes a bitter setback for the Algerian regime, which thus loses a valuable avenue of influence in the Sahelo-Saharan region. Algiers, accustomed to playing the Polisario card to maintain its geopolitical pressure, today sees this strategy defeated by Mauritania determined to preserve its sovereignty and stability.
With this initiative, Mauritania now chooses pragmatic cooperation with partners who, like Morocco and the UAE, share a common vision of stability and development for the entire region.
Towards a secure and prosperous economy:
By strengthening its borders and ensuring the security of its territory, Mauritania is creating the ideal conditions to promote economic developmentparticularly in strategic areas such as Nouadhibou and the border region with Morocco. These efforts pave the way for ambitious infrastructure projects and massive investmentsthus strengthening Mauritania’s position as a pole of stability and prosperity in West Africa.
