Chad opens consulate in Morocco-ruled Western Sahara

Date: Aug 15, 2024

Chad opened yesterday a consulate in Western Sahara, joining African and Arab countries that have established diplomatic missions there in a sign of support for Morocco's claim to the disputed territory.

Morocco considers Western Sahara its own territory, but the Algeria-backed Polisario Front wants to establish its own state there.

So far 29 countries have opened consulates in Western Sahara cities of Layoune and Dakhla in full support of Morocco's sovereignty over the territory.
