Aviv is null, lacks legitimacy, and violates the United Nations (UN)
resolutions.

In his statement to the official Algerian news agency, the Sahrawi
ambassador stressed that this agreement: "Will not affect the determination
of the Sahrawis in their struggle for their cause." Omar explained that
Trump does not have the right to control sovereignty over the disputed
land, and that: "Only the Sahrawi people
<https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20180921-morocco-confirms-it-will-not-renew-relations-with-iran/>
have the right to decide on the matter."

Omar confirmed that the partners in the agreement: "Are doing business,
usurping the rights of people and trading with the blood of the Palestinian
and Saharawi peoples", while confirming that this deal "will never
succeed," given that Trump is about to leave the White House.

The Sahrawi ambassador indicated that the outgoing US president who:
"Denies the rights of the Saharawi people is acting individually," and that
his move "does not express the position of the new US administration,"
while comparing Trump's position with his rejection of the results of the
presidential elections in his country.

The Sahrawi official asserted: "This agreement is nothing but a summer
cloud that will evaporate after Trump's departure from the White House,"
recalling the UN's clear position on the Western Sahara issue.
