France has officially backed Morocco's autonomy plan for Western Sahara, marking a significant shift in its long-standing position. President Emmanuel Macron described the 2007 proposal as the 'only basis' for resolving the conflict, which could enhance Franco-Moroccan relations but alienate Algeria, a supporter of the pro-independence Polisario Front. Algeria's government has condemned France's endorsement, recalling its ambassador and labeling Morocco as a colonizer. The decision has also drawn criticism domestically, with the French Socialist Party denouncing the unilateral move without parliamentary consultation. Meanwhile, King Mohammed VI of Morocco has invited Macron to visit, signaling a strengthening of ties. This diplomatic realignment reflects a broader trend, as several countries have begun to support Morocco's claims in the region, despite ongoing tensions surrounding the lack of a self-determination referendum for the Sahrawi people.
