A context marked by Algerian tensions
In July 2023, when he was invited by Algerian media during the Arab Games, Jibril Rajoub sparked controversy by declaring that “the referendum will decide whether the Sahara is Moroccan or Algerian. » These remarks, described as “verbal slippage”, had been exploited by Algerian circles to call into question Moroccan territorial integrity, provoking indignation within Moroccan political and media circles.
A diplomatic correction and a symbolic victory for Morocco
Jibril Rajoub’s recent statements demonstrate a clear desire to turn the page and re-establish the truth. By greeting Morocco in all its sovereignty, from Tangier to Lagouira, the Palestinian leader sends a strong message of support for the Moroccanness of the Sahara and disarms Algerian attempts at propaganda.
A consolidation of strategic alliances
This position also reflects the solidity of Moroccan-Palestinian relations and highlights the central role of Morocco, under the enlightened leadership of His Majesty King Mohammed VI, in the defense of just causes and in strengthening its international influence.
This declaration by Jibril Rajoub constitutes a resounding victory for Moroccan diplomacy, further strengthening the national cause and affirming Morocco’s position as a key player in regional and international balances.
