RABAT (Reuters) - Spain has told Morocco that it regards its autonomy proposal for Western Sahara as "serious, credible and realistic", Rabat said on Friday, in a move likely to ease a diplomatic dispute between Madrid and Rabat that flared last year.
The language reflects a shift in Madrid's policy towards the dispute in Western Sahara, a territory that Morocco considers its own, but where an Algeria-backed independence movement demands a sovereign state.
