Can not be said that recent speeches that Mohamed VI has on the anniversaries of the Green March has brought nothing positive to solve the problem of the Sahara. A year ago the rope taut so, a traitor who does not affirm the Moroccan Sahara, which caused the case Haidar. Challenged herself throughout the Moroccan state, discrediting the monarch and his government, which had to pull back to support his return to Laayoune, where he had been expelled and deprived of Moroccan nationality.

Saturday's speech has returned to enjoy the untimeliness. Pronounced during the crisis of the encampment of Agdaym Izik, two days of the first meeting between the Frente Polisario and Morocco, with great difficulty Christopher Ross had managed to gather to discuss a negotiated solution has not been able to reassure the thousands of campers with a word of recognition of their claims and hoping to find a solution to a problem that has become, as the poet Abdellatif Laâbi Moroccan, Morocco's disease. Not a word is devoted to the protagonists of this "revolt of the natives" who had managed to contain their protest in a tone of social demand, hiding or delaying a political background that just emerged in demanding control over the resources of the territory.
Mohamed VI was limited in his address to the same promises of a year ago, the restructuring of committees, councils or development agencies in the past year have been unable to provide any output to the problem.
It is possible that this ostrich attitude has spilled over the glass. On yesterday, the day after the royal address, a statement emerged from the makeshift camp ended with the contention that the movement had continued, transforming social protest in political protest plainly discovered "the inalienable right to liberty and self-determination. " The Moroccan authorities' response has not been expected, in an unprecedented assault on the camp that has completely destroyed and several victims side.
The first analysis that can be made of this fact is that Morocco has burst consciously New York trading, losing all credibility in its commitment to finding a realistic way in its autonomy proposal. But it has also killed in the egg any proposal that the Royal Commission for regionalization, headed by Omar Azziman, due in the coming weeks with an autonomy plan for Western Sahara. It is true that such a project hits stumbling block that without a real democratization of Morocco, that autonomy is meaningless. And that is certainly the key to the whole problem. Without democracy, there is no way out to the Sahara issue.
The big question is who, in the environment of the monarch, is so blind that focuses on the suicide of an entire country.
