The UN Security Council has renewed the mandate of the UN Mission for the Referendum in Western Sahara (MINURSO) for one year, adopting Resolution 2797 (2025) with U.S. leadership. The decision marks a historic shift as Morocco’s 2007 Autonomy Plan is cited as the basis for future negotiations, signaling growing international support for a political settlement to end the decades-long conflict.

From Nepal to Morocco, Madagascar to Kenya, a new kind of protest is rewriting the rules of political dissent. Generation Z—raised on TikTok, memes, and digital networks—has transformed outrage into organization. Their movements are fast, leaderless, and impossible to predict. They’re not building revolutions; they’re debugging broken systems—and governments everywhere are struggling to keep up.

Morocco stands at a crossroads. While the kingdom is praised for stability and modernization, a new wave of youth-led protests reveals deep frustration over inequality, poor healthcare, and limited opportunities. Movements like GenZ 212 demand dignity and reform. The challenge ahead is balancing stability with real change — turning unrest into renewal.

U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau reaffirmed Washington’s recognition of Moroccan sovereignty over Western Sahara in a meeting with Moroccan FM Nasser Bourita, pledging support for U.S. business investment across Morocco. The move reinforces Rabat’s Autonomy Proposal as the only U.S.-backed solution, even as the UN continues to list Western Sahara as a non-self-governing territory, with Security Council divisions over its future unresolved.

In a significant diplomatic development, the United Kingdom has officially endorsed Morocco’s autonomy plan for Western Sahara as the most credible and pragmatic path to resolving the decades-long conflict. The joint communiqué, signed in Rabat, signals a strategic shift in UK foreign policy and deepens bilateral ties amid growing international support for Morocco’s regional approach.
