How Morocco's Western Sahara gamble paid off | Mapped Out
Morocco occupies most of disputed Western Sahara while the indigenous Sahrawi people's movement, the Polisario Front, backed by Algeria, seeks an independent state.
But Morocco has managed to win increasing global support - by using its phosphate resources to foster long-term partnerships in Africa and striking deals with the US under Donald Trump.
Morocco also has good relations with Europe, including the former colonial powers Spain and France, promoting further support for its territorial claims.
