Abstract:

 This study examines the Andean Parliament’s position on Morocco’s Autonomy Initiative as a credible and realistic solution to the Sahara conflict between Morocco and the Polisario Front. Adopting a descriptive and case study approach, it analyzes the positions of member states and political parties represented in the Parliament in 2023, with a focus on the rationale behind the official endorsement of the initiative. The findings indicate that most members, including bloc leaders and the Foreign Affairs Committee, support Morocco’s proposal, except for left-wing representatives aligned with the Polisario. The study highlights the impact of field visits to the southern provinces and Morocco’s efforts to strengthen South–South cooperation in shaping this stance. It concludes that a shift in the political balance toward leftist parties could challenge the current support, while right-wing parties continue to back Morocco’s autonomy plan.
