Rabat, Morocco (TMT)- Dozens of Moroccans living in Sweden organized a sit-in Saturday, October 10, before the “Riksdag” (Swedish Parliament), in the wake of reports unveiling that the Swedish authorities are on the verge of recognizing the United-Nations- the pseudo “SADR”.

Protesters called upon Sweden to respect the UN resolution on the Sahara and keep its neutrality by not siding with the polisario front.
