U.S. Ends Commitment To W. Sahara Autonomy

WASHINGTON [MENL] -- President Barack Obama has ended U.S. support for a
Moroccan plan to establish autonomy for Western Sahara.
Diplomatic sources said the Obama administration has disassociated
itself from a Moroccan plan for autonomy for the disputed Western Sahara.
They said the White House no longer sees itself as committed to the
endorsement by then-President George Bush of Western Sahara autonomy.
