Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic–South Africa relations
Sahrawi Republic–South Africa relations refers to the current and historical relations between the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic (SADR) and the Republic of South Africa. Formal diplomatic relations were established at ambassador level in 2004, during the Thabo Mbeki government.〔"Saharawi Arab Democratic Republic - Joint communique on the establishment of diplomatic relations"〕 A Sahrawi embassy was opened in Pretoria,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.dfa.gov.za/foreign/forrep/fors.htm )〕 and the South-African embassy in Algiers was accredited to the SADR.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.saealgiers.com/en/page/home ) "Embassy of the Republic of South Africa in Algeria also accredited to the Saharawi Arab Democratic Republic"〕
South Africa continues to render political support and humanitarian assistance to the Saharawi Arab Democratic Republic. Under the African Renaissance Fund (ARF) South Africa coordinates several projects that aim to benefit the Saharawi population. These include a contribution to a landmine clearance project in the east of the territory and construction of a sport development complex in the territory.〔
==Historical relations==
The relations between Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic (SADR) and South Africa, date back to the close bonds that were forged by the national liberation movements of both countries, namely the African National Congress (ANC) of South Africa and the Polisario Front of Western Sahara shortly after the formation of the Polisario Front in 1973. It was in Algeria that the interaction between the ANC and the Polisario Front was solidified especially through the organisation’s membership of bodies such as the Pan-African Youth Movement.
On 22 July 1988 the then ANC President, Oliver Tambo led an ANC delegation to the Saharawi Arab Democratic Republic (SADR) at the invitation of President Mohamed Abdelaziz of SADR who is also Secretary General of the Polisario Front. In the course of the visit to the Liberated Territories in the SADR, the Polisario Front donated to the ANC and the South-West African People’s Organisation (SWAPO) a substantial quantity of arms and ammunition captured from Moroccan troops. This gesture alone to the South African primary liberation movement signified the enduring bonds forged in difficult circumstances that the two countries and peoples share to this day. During this visit, Tambo said the following of his visit to SADR: ''"The warmth of the popular welcome from the Saharawi people is very different from all other welcomes we have received anywhere else in the world…We are also very surprised by the similarity of the nature of the struggle of the Sahrawi people and the people of South Africa. The visit to the SADR provided concrete confirmation of realities of which we are vaguely aware. One important thing we observed was the respect and support of the Saharawi people towards the struggle of the South African and Namibian people for national independence."''〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.sacp.org.za/pubs/acommunist/1995/issue141.html#ART13 )〕
