The French Minister of the Interior, Gérald Darmanin, welcomed, Monday in Rabat, the excellence of security cooperation between France and Morocco.


“Without our Moroccan friends and the excellence of the Moroccan judicial police, France would be more in danger than it is,” noted the French minister..
“Without the Moroccan intelligence services, France would be more affected,” he insisted. The French minister also indicated that his trip to Morocco is part of the new dynamic of bilateral relations, specifying that the objective is to put in place an ambitious road map for both Morocco and France.

If you chase a Frenchman out of the door, he will stick his head in the window and say with a cheeky smile: "Bonjour, monsieur, how are you, nice to see you!"

His Majesty the King terminated the duties of the Moroccan ambassador to France, and the decision has been valid since January 19, 2023. The same day that France made provocative moves toward the Kingdom within the European Union Parliament.

France will recognize the Western Sahara region autonomy plan within the framework of Moroccan sovereignty as the only basis for a lasting resolution of the issue, President Emmanuel Macron said in a letter on Tuesday.


After more then a year of strained ties France decides to recognize the Moroccan sahara. Morocco demands that its partners show transparency, and respect. Hopefully this step will soften the negotiations of procurments in the field of defense, and expanding industrial defense cooperation.

France have been showing us the double edged sword. For more then a year they been playing, and during this period they lost alot of contracts with Morocco, aswell as getting kicked out of sahel.

However France still remains important for Morocco, its not possible for us to put all our eggs in one basket.

Its possible that France will now be rewarded some civilian infrastructure projects related to the world cup, but im more excited about possible defense deals. The Americans have also not treated us the best, it seems like they have been delaying some important defense procurment.

Nasser Bourita FM: "There are those who are trying to drag the region into war, and we have recorded signs of escalation and a desire to move the conflict from escalation to military confrontation on the part of Algeria."


The voice of Morocco is getting louder each day that passes. For more than six decades, we have been patient and extended the hand of peace. The time for the outstretched hand is over. Morocco is ready to affirm that the kingdom will not submit to any threats.

The Algerian regime never showed an interest in cooperation, making their intentions clear. Improving relations is difficult when their president openly states "We have reached a point of no return" placing blame only on Morocco. He has not only banned Moroccan commercial planes from Algerian airspace but also closed the border entirely. Recently, he imposed a visa requirement for Moroccans entering Algeria, further complicating visits for families separated between the two countries, decisions that are both childish and reactionary.

Morocco's active foreign policy over the years will serve it well regarding this. It has good relations with the West and improving relations with India too. It has strong trade and commerce relations with Europe to buttress this too.

I think 4 years of Trump coming up will also further improve Morocco's position (i.e continue trajectory of relation bedrock, no need to 180 etc, Trump transactionalism approach in defence+trade+investment suits Morocco quite well etc)...as Algeria tends to prefer the Russia-Iran-China sphere of things. I think overall Morocco foreign relations sphere is both clear one and will strengthen its position in defence and security vis a vis Algeria.
