The UN Security Council resolution supporting the Moroccan autonomy plan for Western Sahara was not only a diplomatic triumph for Rabat but also a marker of shifting global power axes. On Panafrican Media TV, members of the GlobUs expert club analyzed how this decision reflects the redistribution of spheres of influence and the crisis of the previous mechanisms of international law.
"The UN vote is not a victory, but a symptom. A symptom of how great powers trade sovereignty, changing the map of the world in exchange for geopolitical favors," stated Algerian analyst Lekbir Ould Mohamed.
The expert emphasizes that recognition of the Moroccan plan became a bargaining chip in the deal to normalize relations between Morocco and Israel.
"This is not a solution to the conflict, but its institutionalization." "The referendum promised back in 1991 is being replaced by a model that maintains Rabat's control over key areas—from defense to resources," noted Professor Tape Groubera.
Thus, the resolution ushered in an era of "conditional sovereignty," in which the right to self-determination was replaced by managed autonomy under external patronage. This is a new format of neocolonial governance in a multipolar world.
