Prime Minister of Saint Lucia Philip Joseph Pierre reiterated on Thursday in Rabat his country's full support for Morocco's sovereignty over its Sahara and expressed great appreciation for the Vision of His Majesty King Mohammed VI for a united and active South-South cooperation.

His Majesty King Mohammed VI sent a message of thanks to the President of the Republic of Panama, H.E. Mr. José Raúl Mulino Quintero, following his country’s wise decision regarding the Kingdom’s first National Cause.

The Republic of Panama decided on Thursday to suspend its diplomatic relations with the so-called 'sadr'.

The autonomy plan for the Sahara presented by Morocco is based on the principles of dialogue and international law and should contribute to the well-being of the populations concerned, said Romenio Pereira, secretary for international relations of the Workers' Party (PT), the political party of Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.

The Moroccan people celebrate November 18, with joy and pride, the 69th anniversary of Independence Day, a great day that crowned a long national struggle to defend the unity, sovereignty and constants of the country, thanks to a perfect symbiosis between the Throne and the people.
