Govt hopes R. Kennedy Foundation will be ... - Morocco World News

Rabat, August 26, 2012 (MAP)

The Moroccan government hopes that Robert Kennedy Foundation for Justice and Human Rights, whose members are carrying out a visit to the southern provinces, develops ?an objective and impartial vision? of the human rights situation in the region and in the Tindouf camps (Algeria?s south-west) where they will go in the future.

?We expect international organizations, whether Robert Kennedy Foundation or others, to develop an objective, impartial and real vision for both the southern provinces of the Kingdom and the Tindouf camps, for a lasting and definitive political solution to this artificial conflict? over the Moroccan Sahara, Communication Minister, Government Spokesman, Mustapha El Khalfi, told MAP news agency.

The visit of the delegation, which began Friday in Laayoune, takes place ?under normal conditions,? he said, refuting unfounded allegations that the tour is subject to a ?security blockade.?

Morocco, he said, presented in 2007 an autonomy initiative for the Sahara within the framework of national sovereignty, and undertake a series of constructive measures, including the establishment of mechanisms for regional structuring of the National Human Rights Council, including the southern provinces, and the positive cooperation with the Human Rights Council in Geneva last May, in the second cycle of the Universal Periodic Review (UPC-2012/2106), under which Morocco has accepted 140 recommendations out of a total of 148, which was well received on the international scene.

El Khalfi focused on the national effort provided in order to ?overcome problems that may arise? in this field, through a participatory approach with human rights organizations.

The door of the Ministry of Justice and Freedom is ?open? to discuss any matter relating to human rights in Morocco, he stressed, noting that the Constitution opens the field to the adaptation of the national legislation in the field with the international commitments of the Kingdom.
