"Spain corrected a historical error": Alfredo Leite on approval of nationality for 70,000 Sahrawis

Sábado10 September 2026 at 20:53

Journalist Alfredo Leite commented on Spain's decision to approve Spanish nationality for approximately 70,000 Sahrawis, describing it as the correction of a historical error. The decision represents a significant shift in Spain's position regarding the Western Sahara issue and the Sahrawi population.

In his commentary, Alfredo Leite highlighted that this approval comes in a context of growing tension in the region. The journalist specifically drew attention to the recent intensification of Moroccan attacks against Sahrawi targets and military positions.

The attacks mentioned involve the use of drones by Moroccan forces, in a military escalation that has been increasing in recent times. This intensification of the armed conflict contrasts with Spain's recognition of the Sahrawi people's rights.

The approval of Spanish nationality for the Sahrawis covered represents a diplomatically significant milestone, occurring at a time when the security situation in Western Sahara is deteriorating with Moroccan aerial attacks.
