On December 10, 2020, President Donald J. Trump reversed decades of U.S. policy by announcing that the United States would recognize Moroccan sovereignty over Western Sahara as part of a deal in which Morocco would normalize relations with Israel. Despite a 1991 UN truce and continued calls by the UN Security Council for Morocco and the Polisario Front to reach a mutually agreeable solution, neither side has relinquished its claim of sovereignty over Western Sahara. Trump's announcement ended nearly thirty years of U.S. support for UN-led negotiations and places the United States at odds with the majority of the international community, which swiftly criticized the U.S. action as a violation of the right to self-determination.

美国承认摩洛哥对西撒哈拉的主权

2020 年 12 月 10 日，唐纳德·J·特朗普总统扭转了美国几十年来的政策，宣布美国将承认摩洛哥对西撒哈拉的主权，作为摩洛哥与以色列关系正常化协议的一部分。尽管 1991 年联合国休战，联合国安理会继续呼吁摩洛哥和波利萨里奥阵线达成双方同意的解决方案，但双方都没有放弃对西撒哈拉的主权主张。特朗普的声明结束了美国近 30 年来对联合国主导的谈判的支持，并使美国与国际社会的大多数人不和，后者迅速批评美国的行动侵犯了自决权。
