The Republic of Ghana has officially suspended its diplomatic relations with the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic (SADR).
According to a statement from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation, and Moroccan Expatriates of the Kingdom of Morocco.
It statement revealed that the Ghanaian government conveyed this decision in an official document from its Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration to Morocco’s counterpart.
Ghana also confirmed it would inform the African Union, the United Nations, and Morocco through diplomatic channels.
In the statement, Ghana reiterated its support for Morocco’s efforts to find a mutually agreeable solution to the Moroccan Sahara dispute, commending these efforts as “good-faith initiatives.”
Ghana initially recognized the SADR in 1979, but this suspension brings it in line with 46 other countries, including 13 African nations, that have either cut or suspended ties with the SADR since 2000.
This move further underscores the diplomatic progress made by Morocco under the leadership of His Majesty King Mohammed VI, who has vigorously advocated for Morocco's stance on the Sahara issue in international forums.
