The Commonwealth of Dominica reiterated its support for territorial integrity and the sovereignty of the Kingdom of Morocco over its entire territory, including the Moroccan Sahara.
This came in a joint statement issued following discussions between the Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccans Residing Abroad, Nasser Bourita, and the Minister of Foreign and International Affairs, Trade and Energy of the Commonwealth of Dominica, Vance Henderson.
In this joint statement, Mr. Henderson renewed his country’s support for the autonomy initiative presented by Morocco in 2007, as the only credible, serious and realistic solution to settle the conflict over the Moroccan Sahara.
In this regard, he noted the efforts made by the United Nations as the exclusive framework to reach a realistic, practical and sustainable solution to this regional conflict.
As a member of the Organization of Eastern Caribbean States, the Commonwealth of Dominica praised the opening of an embassy of the Organization in Rabat on October 18, 2018 and a Consulate General in Dakhla on March 31, 2022, which will undoubtedly constitute a great opportunity to further strengthen bilateral exchanges between the Kingdom of Morocco and the six member states of the Eastern Caribbean.
