The Association of Descendants of Sakia El-Hamra and Oued Eddahab (ADSHOE), based in Tindouf, recently organised a press conference in coordination with the Association for Advanced Regionalisation and Autonomy and the Civic Association for Development in the Oued Eddahab region. This conference aimed to highlight human rights violations in the Tindouf camps, the inhumane situation, and the oppression experienced by the inhabitants of these camps, in full view of the international community. Several press outlets were represented at this conference, as well as representatives of local civil society. The spokesperson for the ADSHOE Association, Hamada Mauloud, welcomed the media representatives who attended the conference. Responding to a question regarding the sit-ins organised by the 'Youth for Change' movement in front of the UNHCR headquarters in Rabouni, he indicated that these sit-ins express the genuine desire of the organisers to prove that the camp inhabitants are not held there by conviction, but are victims of the Polisario's deceitful slogans dating back to the bygone era of the Cold War. Today, he added, with the development of communication tools that have reached these camps, the youth have realised that the situation of the camp inhabitants is far from that of refugees, as recognised under international law. Consequently, they are captives with no right to freedom of movement, which has pushed the youth of the camps to join various organisations such as 'Youth for Change' or 'Enough', among many others, in search of freedom. As examples of human rights violations perpetrated in the camps, Hamada highlighted that the testimonies reported by young people, whose faces were hidden by their turbans for fear of reprisals and broadcast by the Laâyoune TV channel, constitute eloquent proof of the restrictions on freedoms in the camps. Not to mention the numerous complaints filed before European courts against Polisario leaders for rape, torture, kidnapping, and sequestration. Responding to a question regarding the role of the UN in enabling a solution to this artificial conflict, Mauloud said that for him, the UN has lost its credibility and that major powers such as the USA, Great Britain, France, or Russia, which are traditional allies of Morocco, are the only ones to decide the fate of the world. Therefore, it is time to put an end to the suffering of thousands of Sahrawis wandering in the Algerian desert. The internal autonomy proposed by the Kingdom is the only satisfactory solution that guarantees a life of dignity and is capable of putting an end to this deplorable situation we are living in. A solution where there is neither winner nor loser, which preserves the Sahrawi identity and allows for the reunification of the dispersed Sahrawi tribes, who are currently being used to sway elections in both Mauritania and Algeria, and why not in other countries.
