Costa Rica has described Morocco’s autonomy initiative as the “most appropriate, serious, credible, and realistic” basis for resolving the dispute over the Western Sahara, saying it considers autonomy under Moroccan sovereignty “the most feasible solution.”
The position was set out in a joint declaration signed in Rabat following talks between Morocco’s Foreign Minister Nasser Bourita and his Costa Rican counterpart Arnoldo André Tinoco, who is on a working visit to the Kingdom.
Costa Rica said it intends to act on this stance across political, diplomatic, economic and consular levels, signalling a broader alignment with Rabat’s position on the issue.
The statement also welcomed the adoption of United Nations Security Council Resolution 2797 (2025), highlighting what it described as growing momentum around the political process.
