Relationship context

Knowledge coverageLimited

Overview

Egypt has supported a UN-led political process on Western Sahara while also expressing support for Morocco's territorial integrity. This position does not amount to recognition of Sahrawi independence. Information about direct government cooperation by the Sahrawi authorities with Egypt is insufficient to assess their policy toward Egypt.
