DECLARACION DE PRENSA DE BUJARI AHMED


DECLARACION DE PRENSA DE BUJARI AHMED
REPRESENTANTE DEL F.POLISARIO ANTE LA ONU
NUEVA YORK, 30 DE ABRIL 2010

El Consejo de seguridad adopto hoy viernes su resolución 1920 (2010) sobre el Sahara occidental en la que reafirma de manera explícita el mandato de la MINURSO y todas las anteriores resoluciones del Consejo sobre el Sahara occidental. Esta reafirmación constituye una respuesta directa a los prolongados intentos y tergiversaciones de Marruecos encaminados a desviar el proceso de paz de sus objetivos y que son la organización de un referéndum de autodeterminación que permita al pueblo saharaui elegir libremente su futro.
Al hacerlo, el Consejo reafirma la naturaleza de la cuestión saharaui como un problema de descolonización que debe ser resuelto en base a la aplicación del derecho a la autodeterminación en el marco del mandato por el que la MINURSO fue establecida y envida al Sahara occidental. Es en este contexto y sobre la base de esa visión que el Consejo reitera en la resolución que el actual proceso de negociaciones debe ser encaminado en la búsqueda de una solución que asegure el ejercicio por parte del pueblo saharaui de su derecho a la autodeterminación.
El Frente Polisario y el Gobierno de la RASD desean rendir un vibrante homenaje a todos aquellos países miembros del Consejo que antes y después de la resolución reafirmaron su vinculación a la defensa de los derechos humanos en el Sahara occidental, entre ellos, Uganda, Nigeria, México, Austria, Estados Unidos, Gran Bretaña, mostrando de forma evidente el aislamiento total de la alianza franco-marroquí establecida sobre la base de un abierto desafío a la legalidad internacional. Es en este marco, como la resolución subraya la importancia de la dimensión relativa a los derechos humanos y enfatiza la obligación de Marruecos, como potencia ocupante, a cumplir con sus obligaciones internacionales en esta materia. La resolución subraya que esta obligación debe ser asumida teniendo en cuenta la responsabilidad de la ONU y su sistema en la protección y defensa de los derechos humanos.
La resolución así como las intervenciones de los diferentes miembros del Consejo antes y después de la adopción de la resolución configuran un mensaje directo dirigida a Marruecos para que ponga fin a sus tergiversaciones y a su desafío a la legalidad internacional y a los derechos humanos.
Para el Pueblo Saharaui, el resultado de estos desarrollos, fruto del vasto apoyo que la causa saharaui conoce en el ámbito internacional, son una batalla más ganada en el camino irreversible a la independencia y a la libertad.
