The Representative of Polisario to the United Nations
Mr.Ahmed Boukhari
addressed on December 7, 1995
to
His Excellency Mr. Sergey V. Lavrov, President of the
Security Council of the United Nations
Mr President,
I have been instructed by the Secretary-General of the Frente
Polisario and President of SADR to transmit to you the following
concerning the draft resolution on the situation regarding Western
Sahara as its co-sponsors have amended it today, 7 December 1995:
Based on all letters that we have addressed to the Security
Council Members, the Frente Polisario unequivocally stresses its
decision not to participate in the identification process on the
basis of the wording contained in the operative paragraphs 2 and 3
of the new draft resolution nor recognizes the validity of an
unilateral identification as foreseen in the Secretary-General's
report.
Furthermore, the Frente Polisario will not accept to enter in
any consultations with the Secretary-General and / or his acting
special Representative in this context of the operative paragraph
2 of the said draft resolution that clearly tends to create a
"fait accompli" and render useless such consultations.
If such a draft resolution is passed as it stands now, the
Frente Polisario would have no other option than reconsidering its
obligations under the Settlement Plan.
I would be grateful to you to convey the content of this letter to
the Members of the Security Council.
Highest consideration,
Ahmed Boukhari, Representative of Polisario
