The Algerian Foreign Ministry issued a statement expressing regret over the failure to extend the mandate of the United Nations Mission in Western Sahara (MINURSO). The Western Sahara issue is a long-standing regional dispute, and MINURSO's main responsibilities are to monitor the implementation of relevant ceasefire agreements and promote a just solution to the regional issue through peaceful negotiation. The successful extension of the mission's mandate is crucial to the stability of the Western Sahara region and the orderly progress of the peace process. The failure to extend its mandate has also drawn significant attention from countries in the region.
