- W2063578594 abstract "The Western Sahara conflict revolves around competing claims to the territory bythe Kingdom of Morocco and the Polisario Front independence movement (otherwiseknown as the government of the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic, orSADR). From 1884 to 1975, the territory was a Spanish colony (called SpanishSahara), although it was only in the final decades that Spain exercised administrativecontrol over the Sahrawi tribes in the interior. In 1965, the UN called onSpain to begin decolonization of the Western Sahara. Ten years later, the InternationalCourt of Justice issued an advisory opinion. Although the court affirmedthe Sahrawis’ right to self-determination, Morocco and Mauritania interpretedthe opinion as supporting their respective historical claims to the territory, andtook control. On 6 November 1975, King Hassan II orchestrated the so-called‘Green March’. Approximately 350,000 Moroccans converged on the city ofTarfaya in southern Morocco and crossed into Western Sahara. This mass movementpressured Spain into ceding the Western Sahara toMorocco and Mauritaniaa few days later. The Polisario independence movement, which had been formedin 1973, launched offensives against Morocco andMauritania, with Algerian andLibyan political and military support. Tens of thousands of Sahrawis fled torefugee camps in Algeria. Those who remained were subsumed by waves of settlersfrom Morrocco and harsh repression. In 1979, Mauritania relinquished itsshare of the Western Sahara, which was occupied by Morocco. Morocco wasable to secure possession of most of the territory by constructing a 2,000 kmdefensive wall (called the berm), though military activity continued. In 1990–91 the UN Security Council approved a settlement plan that would lead to a referendumwhere voters could choose between independence and integration withMorocco. Subsequently, the UN Security Council approved the United NationsMission for the Referendum in Western Sahara (MINURSO) to oversee the implementation of the settlement plan. An informal ceasefire became formal aftera renewed bout of fighting. ..." @default.
