Frente Polisário
The Frente Polisário is a nationalist organization that represents the Sahrawi people and seeks independence for Western Sahara, a territory claimed by both the Polisario Front and Morocco. Founded in 1973, the group has engaged in armed struggle and diplomatic efforts to achieve self-determination for the Sahrawi people, particularly against Moroccan claims to the region. The organization was in the news recently due to the United Nations' approval of Morocco's autonomy plan for Western Sahara, which the Frente Polisário opposes.
