United Nations Security Council resolution 1495 was unanimously approved by the council on July 31, 2003 [1], and dealt with the decolonization process of Western Sahara. Its main importance was that it "supported ... as an optimum political solution" the Baker Plan, put forth by James Baker III, who was at that time the Special Representative for Western Sahara of the UN's Secretary-General Kofi Annan, as a replacement of the 1991 Settlement Plan. The resolution was welcomed by the Polisario Front, which supported the Baker Plan, but not by the Kingdom of Morocco, which resisted it.
