Ecuador just backed Morocco's plan to settle the long-running Sahara mess. The South American country's top diplomat Gabriela Sommerfeld made this clear during her visit to Rabat on Friday. She met with Morocco's Foreign Minister Nasser Bourita and told reporters that Morocco's Autonomy Initiative should be the starting point for fixing this regional headache. Ecuador joins most United Nations countries that think Morocco has the right approach. The two ministers talked about finding a solution that actually works and keeps everyone happy.

Sommerfeld said her country wants Morocco to succeed with its realistic and practical approach to the dispute. She stressed that any deal needs to happen through the United Nations system. Most world leaders agree that Morocco's plan makes sense compared to other options on the table. The Ecuador minister praised Morocco's efforts to find a lasting political settlement. She said the North African kingdom deserves support from the international community.

Ecuador already made a bold move last October when it stopped recognizing the so-called sadr entity. The country cut all connections with this group on October 22, 2024. This decision showed Ecuador was serious about backing Morocco's position on the Sahara issue. The move aligned Ecuador with dozens of other countries that have dropped support for the separatist group. Ecuador's actions prove that more nations see Morocco's autonomy plan as the best path forward.
