Karim Mezran, director of the North Africa Initiative with the Atlantic Council, said a change in US policy could contribute to escalating tensions and fighting in the region, with reports of clashes last month in the most significant ceasefire violation since its inception.
“Tensions in the region have been rising for some time, but the incident could start a new conflict between the two Maghreb states,” Mezran said. “In other words, this generalization would be a success for the Moroccan monarchy in return for the recognition of the Moroccan claim over the Western Sahara, if it does not sink into a military confrontation with Algeria.”
That fear was expressed by Angel, who said in his statement that “all parties in North Africa must exercise restraint, refrain from violence and continue to move towards a just and lasting settlement.”
