Advanced regionalization and autonomy projects are not a solution to the Sahara conflict, but also a step to move forward to integration in the Maghreb, said on Saturday Algerian writer, critic and researcher, Said Elhadef.
These Moroccan projects will help rehabilitate regional affairs and develop and promote regions, as is the case in several democratic countries, he said during a conference on “the Grand Maghreb, common development for a united future”.
He also noted that the closure of land borders between Morocco and Algeria is an obstacle to the movement of the two peoples and a barrier to other countries like Tunisia and Libya, insisting that some circles are seeking to prevent union and rapprochement between the two Maghreban countries.
The same conclusion was made by chairman of the Tunisian Maghreban Republican Party, Mohamed Boussiri Bouebdelli, who called for dismantling customs barriers in order to promote the free movement of goods and people and promote economic, scientific and cultural exchanges, stressing that countries of the region have no other alternative but to embrace their Maghreban geographic context.
The Maghreban union is a dream cherished by people of the region, he added stressing that it is a must to face problems of unemployment, social disparities and extremism and terrorism threats.
The conference was held at the initiative of the Moroccan league for the defense of Moroccan territorial integrity.
