The Honorable Barack Obama
The President-Elect
Obama for America
P.O. Box 8102
Chicago, IL 60680
Dear President-Elect;
On behalf of the people of the Western Sahara; its Government and my own, I would like to extend my warmest congratulations upon your historic electoral victory which brings so much hope to many people and nations, in particular to the Sahrawis that have been denied justice for so long.
I am confident that your election not only will lead your great country to further prosperity but also will contribute to creating a more stable world based on the respect for the international legality.
The people of the Western Sahara, the last colony in Africa, has a great hope in your leadership to ensure that justice will prevail in that part of Africa and that a democratic solution is implemented through a free and fair referendum in which the Sahrawi people can determine its future.
While I wish you success in your noble Mission, Mr. President-Elect, Please accept the expression of my highest consideration.
Mohamed Abdelaziz
President of the Sahrawi Republic
Secretary General of the Polisario Front
