AGP Executive Report
Last update: 8 hours agoTindouf Rights Row: A Sahrawi NGO alliance in El Aaiún has sharply criticized Amnesty International’s latest report, accusing it of “selectivity” and of leaving out alleged Algerian army summary executions near the Tindouf camps since 2014, including the killings of Sidi Ahmed Ould Ghoulam and Najem Ould Mahmoud (April 9, 2025). Morocco’s Strategic Push: A Stimson Center report portrays Morocco as a fast-rising “middle power” linking Europe, Africa and the Mediterranean, citing industrial upgrades, logistics, critical minerals and renewable energy—while keeping the Western Sahara issue in the spotlight. Energy Diplomacy: Morocco is also pitching green hydrogen and related “decarbonized molecules” to Europe, building on renewables growth and port/logistics expansion. Security Context: Separately, coverage this week links Iran’s wider proxy activity to the Western Sahara dispute, while noting the Polisario’s continued control of parts of the territory from Tindouf. Regional Trade: Spain and Morocco’s transport/logistics cooperation gets a boost at Logismed, with Spain as guest of honour.
