HIBAPRESS – Rabat
The Provisional Committee for the Management of Press and Publishing Affairs, on behalf of all Moroccan journalists, warmly welcomed the UN Security Council resolution issued on Friday, October 31, 2025, which reaffirmed Morocco's sovereignty over its southern territories, considering this decision a great victory for the Kingdom's historical right in its Sahara.
The committee praised the wisdom and competence with which Morocco managed this diplomatic and political battle under the wise leadership of His Majesty King Mohammed VI, stressing that this success would not have been achieved without the strong cohesion between the throne and the people, and the firm national consensus around the territorial integrity of the Kingdom. The committee affirmed that the UN resolution came to reinforce the path that the Kingdom has taken for decades in order to complete its territorial integrity, after it suffered from multiple colonial attempts aimed at tearing it apart, weakening it, and preventing it from investing its capabilities in comprehensive development. The statement added that the battles fought by Morocco in defense of its sovereignty and territorial integrity – whether political, diplomatic, or military – constituted lessons in patriotism and unity, and also showed that the weapon of the media is no less important than other weapons in confronting misinformation campaigns that targeted the national cause, by promoting false narratives that serve foreign agendas hostile to the country's interests. In this context, the committee highlighted that the joy of the inhabitants of the southern provinces with the Security Council resolution expresses their firm attachment to the homeland, and refutes all misleading propaganda that has long tried to portray the reality of the Moroccan Sahara in a way that contradicts the truth. The Provisional Committee for the Management of Press and Publishing Affairs stressed that the battle to defend Moroccan rights will not stop, but will continue on various fronts, calling on the national media to be more professional, committed and responsible, and to strengthen its moral and material capabilities to confront the continuous maneuvers against the country's unity. The committee concluded by emphasizing that Morocco will remain committed to its historical rights and its full sovereignty over all its territories, moving forward with confidence under the leadership of His Majesty King Mohammed VI towards consolidating its gains and strengthening its position in its regional and international environment.
