The UN Secretary-General regularly submits reports on the situation in Western Sahara to the UN Security Council. This report, however, is special as it gives a resumé of the entire process to reach a settlement between Morocco and the POLISARIO Front. Based on this resumé, Annan and Baker conclude the "Settlement Plan" has poor prospects being achieved and therefore present an alternative plan to reach a solution to the conflict. 

This report also includes interesting annexes, such as Annan's proposal for a new "Framework Agreement", correspondance with Algeria and correspondence with the POLISARIO. As the document is very large (124 kb), we have also split it up for you.
