Maghreb-USA, Politics, 8/20/2005
US Senator Richard Lugar, who played a key role in securing the release of 404 Moroccan prisoners from the Algerian-backed Polisario insurgents, has urged Algeria and Morocco to take advantage of the goodwill from the prisoner release to try to resolve their dispute over the Western Sahara.
"The United States is not going to pressure Algeria or Morocco.ΚΚ But we are respectfully asking that they go back to the United Nations, that they take advantage of this new opportunity of goodwill and good faith," Lugar said in an interview with Abu Dhabi television in Rabat, Morocco August 19.
