List of ambassadors of the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic to Peru explained
The Ambassador of the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic to Peru was the official representative of the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic (SADR) to Peru. The Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic's embassy in Peru was located in Miraflores, a district of Lima.[1] Prior to its opening, the embassy in Caracas was accredited instead.[2]
Background
See main article: Peru–Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic relations. The Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic was first recognised by Peru through a treaty signed on August 16, 1984, under the presidency of Fernando Belaúnde. Bilateral relations were then formally established in 1987[3] but ultimately frozen in 1996[4] due to the Moroccan government pursuing closer relations with Peru as a direct consequence of the recognition, as well as criticisms at home and diplomatic incidents involving both African states.
After relations were suspended, the only Peruvian government to take an interest in the situation in Western Sahara was that of Ollanta Humala, who sent a delegation to the territories administered by the Polisario Front and the Algerian refugee camps, where they met with Sahrawi authorities. During this period, the Sahrawi government was represented through special envoys sent to negotiate the reestablishment of relations.
After 25 years, relations were resumed on September 8, 2021, under the presidency of Pedro Castillo.[5] After a year, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Peru announced that it decided to withdraw its recognition of the state on August 18, 2022,[6] but this was disputed by Castillo, who confirmed the recognition of the state on September 8, 2022.[7] [8] Castillo subsequently met with Foreign Affairs Minister Mohamed Salem Uld Salek and speculated on the prospect of opening an embassy in Peru.[9] The embassy ultimately opened in November 2022 and closed on September 23, 2023.

- Cuadrilátero Político Barrantes sigue de canciller . Oiga . 28 . 1988 . Una nueva prueba, por si faltaran, del cada vez más estrecho entendimiento ideológico y político entre Alan García y Alfonso Barrantes Lingán con miras al frente popular moscovita-habanero-barrantista-alanista: en la práctica, el ex alcalde cajamarquino se ha convertido en ministro de Relaciones Exteriores y ya no en la sombra. Cuando el vicepresidente cubano asistió a Palacio el sábado antepasado, lo agasajaron Alan García y Barrantes. Y mientras los diplomáticos de Torre Tagle estaban en la luna sobre el estrechamiento de relaciones entre el Perú y la fantasmal República Saharauí, Barrantes, tras bambalinas, coordinaba la venida a Lima del "embajador concurrente" de la inexistente república, Hambi B. Sidi Mahmud. Mahmud presentó sus cartas credenciales al presidente García el jueves, en el Salón Dorado del Palacio de Gobierno. En un ditirámbico discurso, el representante de los fantasmales sarahauis relevó el "liderazgo tercermundista" de Alan García. La ceremonia terminó con abrazos y grandes sonrisas. Mientras esto ocurre en Lima, en la ONU se ha anunciado la realización de un referéndum sobre el asunto. El APRA, en cambio, ya tomó partido, dando una poco diplomática bofetada al gobierno de Marruecos, que no tiene nada de fantasma..
