 Polisario which was founded on a left-wing ideology, responds that the children in Cuba, numbering tens or hundreds rather than thousands, are students at Cuban universities, and are there of their own free will under a UNHCR-sponsored student exchange program.It regards the Moroccan accusations as a smear campaign aimed at cutting off access to education for Sahrawi refugees.While there exists primary education, there are no universities in the refugee camps, and so Sahrawis have to go abroad to study.
