Abstract: | The United States decision to escalate arms deliveries to Morocco or use in the Western Sahara is likely to prolong the war Morocco is fighting against the Polisario. It is most unlikely to affect its final outcome, and, ironically, it may therefore actually worsen Hassan's predicament in the long run rather than helping him out of it. It could accelerate the process of destabilisation in Morocco that is designed to avoid. Map photogr. |
