SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE, March 21. (EUROPE PRESS) –
The Canarian Association of Victims of Terrorism, Acavite, demands from Morocco and Spain, respectively, “reparation and justice for the abandonment and lack of protection” of the Spanish families, and that they comply as soon as possible with the Madrid Tripartite Agreements of 1975, when they promised protection and security to the Spanish workers of FossBucraá and sailors who worked on the high seas, due to the “brutal attacks” committed by the Polisario Front, against Spanish workers and fishermen, “so as not to close erratically and falsely”, in the new geopolitical board and Moroccan autonomy proposal for Sahara.
Acavite also requests the involvement in favor of the Canarian victims of terrorism affected by other intervening diplomatic actors, such as the case of the United States, France and Algeria, which for decades have played a determining role.
In this sense, for the families of affected Spanish victims gathered in Acavite, in Spain, “justice has not yet been done for the 289 Spanish victims of terrorist attacks committed by the Polisario Front between 1973 and 1986.”
Not in vain, indicates the association in a note, “the National Court has a complaint filed from the Canarian Association of Victims of Terrorism, Acavite, filed since 2012, with which they have done nothing, none of those murders has been resolved same as the 378 carried out by ETA”.
Along these lines, it indicates that “Spain has, to date, 667 open cases of unsolved crimes before the Justice, when the bloodthirsty Brahim Ghali was Minister of Defense and mastermind of this armed Saharawi pro-independence group of the Polisario”, and that He was welcomed in Logroño “illegally” by the Spanish government, chaired by Pedro Sánchez.
“TERRORIST ATTROCITIES”
On the other hand, Acavite extends his criticism to the Spanish political class and the Canary archipelago “to put an end to the immoral hypocrisy” of the related political parties in the Congress of Deputies, as well as in the Parliament of the Canary Islands, to defend the real victims of terrorism, instead of the Polisario Front independence group that “committed the terrorist atrocities” in the 1970s and 1980s.
It is about, he continues, “deputies and senators who have done nothing in these 50 years to restore and support the Spanish victims of unpunished attacks committed by the Polisario Front, causing murders, injuries, massive machine-gunning of boats, kidnappings and disappearances in high seas, which involve crimes of genocide and crimes against humanity, not yet prosecuted, because they are specifically directed at defenseless civilian groups”.
In this sense, he comments that “no one is unaware that there were terrorist attacks against Spanish national workers from the rich phosphate mines of Fosbucraá, –Aaiun, in the former Spanish Sahara–, and fishermen from autonomous communities such as Galicia, Basque Country, Andalusia, Extremadura, Castilla y León, and Portugal, which fished in Atlantic waters”.
The Canarian Association of Victims of Terrorism denounces that until now, from Spain, the Polisario Front has been “erratically” defended.
“They have been supported with millionaire aid as a solidarity and self-propagandistic modus vivendi, before society and the complacent media and followers of the alleged polisaria cause, both by successive governments since the Transition, as well as in autonomous communities such as the Canary Islands, Basque Country, Andalusia, Catalonia, Navarra, or Aragon, among others,” he stresses.
“BLACKING” OF THE POLISARIO
For this reason, they ask the political parties of the Congress of Deputies and in the Parliament of the Canary Islands that have supported politically, from the PSOE, PP, Coalición Canaria CC, Partido Nacionalista Vasco PNV, EH Bildu, Podemos UP, Esquerra Republicana, Ciudadanos, CIU, and, above all, Nueva Canarias, “that they do not continue to perpetuate the immoral hypocrisy of justifying and whitewashing the Polisario Front.”
Likewise, it points out that “incomprehensibly, a Canarian regional law for victims of terrorism demanded by families for decades has not been deliberately approved.”
And the circumstance occurs, indicates Acavite, “that during those years, Brahim Ghali was the intellectual author who carried out terrorist attacks against the Spanish island population.
The association represents more than 300 victims and assures that the new events must be taken advantage of by the world diplomatic geostrategy to “solve festering problems” and that affect relatives of victims of polisario terrorism, orphans and Spanish widows, abandoned, unprotected and “forgotten”. to their fate” for 50 years.
“That is why we demand a speedy solution, and we are recognized for legitimate reparations, restitution and justice for the atrocities committed, and that both states promised to avoid since 1975 –after the Madrid Agreements– when the Polisario began its terrorist escalation against Spanish nationals”.
In this context, Acavite understands that the intervention of the governments and royal houses involved is necessary, in the action agenda of this conflict, and through the Foreign Ministers of Spain and José Manuel Albares* and of Morocco,* Nasser Bourita, who must quickly address the “demands” and give them a satisfactory solution, “once and for all”.
“Without us, the Canarian victims of terrorism, the page cannot be turned in the final resolution of the Sahara,” she stresses.
