sion’s personnel, vehicles, equipment and symbols were expected to leave Morocco’s southern provinces in the coming days. Morocco further argued that the Security Council’s periodic meetings, reports by the UN Secretary-General and briefings by his Personal Envoy should no longer be necessary. These are Morocco’s stated expectations; the failure to renew the mandate does not, by itself, constitute a formal decision removing Western Sahara from the Security Council’s agenda. MINURSO Begins Winding Down MINURSO was established in 1991 following a ceasefire between Morocco and the Polisario Front. Its original mandate included monitoring the ceasefire and supporting preparations for a referendum on the territory’s future. The referendum was never held, largely because of disagreements over voter eligibility and other unresolved issues. Following the Security Council’s failure to renew the mandate, UN Secretary-General António Guterres said the mission would begin winding down on November 1. The withdrawal process is expected to involve the departure of personnel and the handling of UN equipment. The end of the mission’s mandate does not mean that all questions surrounding Western Sahara have been settled. The political dispute and differing positions over the territory’s future remain unresolved. Morocco Reaffirms Commitment to the Ceasefire In its statement, Morocco said it remained committed to the ceasefire and to safeguarding its territorial integrity, national security and the security of its citizens. Rabat also said it would continue its diplomatic efforts at bilateral and regional levels, building on international support for its autonomy proposal under Moroccan sovereignty. The Royal Office stated that more than two-thirds of UN member states, including permanent members of the Security Council and other influential countries, support autonomy under Moroccan sovereignty as a framework for resolving the dispute. This figure reflects the Moroccan government’s characterization of international support. Different Positions Remain The Security Council’s failure to agree on a mandate extension followed sharp differences among its members over the wording and direction of the proposed resolutions. The United States-backed draft supported Morocco’s autonomy proposal as a basis for negotiations. Russia opposed that approach and vetoed the draft, arguing that it prejudged the issue. The competing Russian proposal also failed to secure the votes required for adoption. The Polisario Front and Algeria have continued to oppose proposals they believe undermine the right of the Sahrawi people to self-determination. They have criticized the direction of the US-backed initiative. The developments therefore mark a major change in the UN mission’s status, but they have not produced an agreed political settlement among the parties. What Happens Next? With MINURSO beginning its withdrawal, attention is turning to the future role of the United Nations and the diplomatic efforts surrounding Western Sahara. Morocco says it intends to continue advancing its autonomy proposal through bilateral and regional diplomacy. Other parties continue to call for a process that addresses self-determination. The coming weeks and months will be important in determining how the United Nations and the parties respond to the end of MINURSO’s mandate. For now, the mission’s 35-year presence is coming to an end, while the broader political question of Western Sahara remains unresolved.

The non-renewal of MINURSO’s mandate should not be interpreted as a final UN ruling on sovereignty or as a comprehensive settlement of the Western Sahara dispute.
