United Nation, June 24, 2012 (SPS) - The Secretary General of the United Nations, Mr. Ban Ki-moon, reiterated Friday confidence on his Personal Envoy for Western Sahara, Ambassador Christopher Ross, according to the Spanish News Agency (EFE).

“The Secretary General reiterates full support and confidence on his Personal Envoy for Western Sahara,” said Mr. Martin Nesirkyin, the spokesperson of the UN Secretary-General, answering a question about the recent statements made by the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Spain in Rabat in this regard.

The Agency indicated that the UN Chief Ban KI-moon has confirmed several times his confidence on the work of Ross, while the Polisario Front spoke out of condemnation to the action of Morocco to confront decisions of the United Nations and recommendations of the Security Council.

President of the Saharawi National Council and Head of Saharawi negotiating delegation, Mr. Khatri Addouh, has recently made clear that the course of negotiations with Morocco “is only one of the many paths of the Saharawi people’s struggle for freedom, self-determination and independence.” (SPS)
