Moroccan PM Sparks Controversy with Misleading Tweet About Western Sahara Highway

The Head of Government, Saâdeddine El Otmani, has again posted a message on Twitter mentioning the "Western Sahara". The controversy is growing.

"In the heart of the Sahara, Morocco has built a 1000-kilometer highway #WesternSahara". This is the message that Saâdeddine El Othmani has again posted on his official account. This post is accompanied by an erroneous photo. It is a photo of a road in Saudi Arabia falsely attributed to Morocco.

This tweet provoked the anger of Internet users. "No, Mr. Prime Minister. With all due respect, but this is not the Western Sahara but the Moroccan Sahara. It’s called the Moroccan Sahara!", reacted an Internet user.
