Morocco back to the African Union

Morocco back to the African Union

Dr. Jassim Taqui


An overwhelming majority of African countries on Monday voted in favor of Morocco's return to the African Union (AU), during the 28th Summit of African Heads of State and Government, which is being held in Addis Ababa.
Thirty-nine African countries expressed their support to the kingdom's return to the pan-African bloc.
The decision for Morocco to rejoin the AU came Monday at the African leader's summit in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
Morocco has been admitted to join the AU with a view that it will become the 55th member of the continental body. This means that the artificial entity of the so-called Western Sahara has to be kicked out of the AU.
Historically, there is no such an entity as “ Western Sahara.” The area was illegally occupied by Spain but Morocco fought hard to regain it. It is called  Moroccan Sahara.
