France · National Assembly · 11 November 2018
M. Sébastien Nadot attire l'attention de M. le ministre de l'Europe et des affaires étrangères sur la situation au Sahara occidental et tout particulièrement sur la discrimination et les représailles qui touchent aujourd'hui les enfants des défenseurs des droits de l'Homme. Occupé depuis novembre 1975 par le Maroc, en dépit des résolutions de l'organisation des Nations unies (ONU), le Sahara occidental attend depuis 1991 l'organisation d'un référendum prévu par l'ONU avec l'établissement de la mission des Nations unies pour l'organisation d'un référendum au Sahara occidental (MINURSO). Depuis lors, la situation des Sahraouis s'est dégradée tant en ce qui concerne les populations sous domination marocaine pour lesquelles les droits de l'Homme sont peu respectés, que s'agissant des réfugiés, évalués à 170 000 personnes réparties dans cinq grands camps situés dans le sud algérien. Ces réfugiés connaissent des conditions de vie particulièrement difficiles et, selon les informations rapportées par les organisations non gouvernementales (ONG), se sentent délaissés par l'opinion internationale. Par ailleurs, en l'absence d'université sur le territoire du Sahara occidental, les enfants des défenseurs des droits de l'Homme sont aujourd'hui privés de bourses et de bons de transport vers les villes universitaires du Maroc par les autorités marocaines pour leur première année universitaire, cela du seul fait des activités de leurs parents en faveur des droits fondamentaux du peuple sahraoui et principalement du droit à l'autodétermination. Cette privation, particulièrement néfaste à la poursuite des études, constitue un message très fort à ne pas exprimer de positions politiques pour les autres étudiants des universités. Il lui demande s'il entend intervenir auprès des autorités marocaines pour qu'elles respectent les droits fondamentaux du peuple sahraoui et mettent fin à la discrimination dont sont victimes les enfants des défenseurs des droits de l'Homme.
