Gabon reiterated its support and encouragement for the Moroccan autonomy initiative, which presents "credible and reassuring prospects", not only to end the current impasse but also to reach a settlement to the Sahara issue.

Guinea said on Friday in New York that the Moroccan autonomy plan has the merit of "transcending traditional divergent positions" and laying the foundations for an effective autonomy of the Sahara through the establishment of executive, legislative and judicial bodies with their own powers.

Senegal said Friday in New York, that the autonomy plan, elaborated "in good faith" by Morocco, remains more than ever an appropriate framework for finding a "happy and final outcome" to the regional dispute over the Sahara on the basis of a dynamic compromise.

The Central African Republic (CAR) lambasted on Friday before the 4th Committee of the UN General Assembly the maneuvers of the "other parties" to hinder the final settlement of the Sahara issue.
