Trump highway in Sahara? US President claims a Morrocan 660-mile tribute in disputed territory
US President Donald Trump claimed Morocco will name a 1,055-km highway in disputed Western Sahara after him, citing his 2020 recognition of Moroccan sovereignty over the territory. Morocco has not confirmed the claim. The proposed highway highlights closer US-Morocco ties amid the long-running Western Sahara dispute and the region's growing investment boom.
