"I welcome Morocco's commitment to the ceasefire and the freedom of movement through the El Guerguarat crossing," said Tajani, who chairs the European Parliament's Committee on Constitutional Affairs (AFCO).
"This decision stabilizes the Sahara region in line with the position of the UN", said Tajani also vice-president of the "Forza Italia" party.
Several European political figures and experts welcomed Morocco's commitment to the ceasefire, stressing the legitimacy of the intervention of the Royal Armed Forces (FAR) to secure the crossing that links Morocco to Mauritania via the buffer zone of El Guerguarat and to put an end to the actions of the polisario.
