2010-02-01

Negotiations between the parties in the Western Sahara conflict could resume by mid-February, MAP quoted UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon as saying Sunday (January 31st) in Addis Ababa. UN Western Sahara Envoy Christopher Ross is in "active" contact with all parties concerned, Ban said, adding that the informal meeting last August in Austria between Morocco and the Polisario "proved very useful".

Moroccan Foreign Minister Taieb Fassi-Fihri and Polisario Front leader Mohamed Abdelaziz have recently voiced their willingness to participate in a new round of UN-brokered talks.
