Morocco’s King Mohammed VI became one of the first world leaders to congratulate Donald J. Trump following his election as President of the United States of America for a new term.
He expressed to Trump, his best wishes for every success in his presidential duties and endeavours to serve the American people.
The Moroccan monarch recalls the historic alliance and strategic partnership between his kingdom and the United States, which King Mohammed VI says has withstood the test of time.
“The values we have in common and our shared interests across a wide range of sectors have enabled us to consistently work together towards building a better future for our peoples, making our relationship a driving force for peace, security and prosperity in the Middle East, Africa and beyond.”
King Mohammed expressed that Trump’s resounding success in the American Presidential Election is a tribute to his patriotism and rewards his continued commitment to upholding the best interests of the United States, “our longstanding friend and ally”.
The monarch recalled that during the previous tenure of Trump, bilateral ties reached an unprecedented level when the United States of America recognized the Kingdom of Morocco’s full sovereignty over its entire territory in the Sahara, underlining that this memorable act, for which the Moroccan people will be forever grateful, was a milestone and a pivotal moment, reflecting “the true depth of the special, longstanding relationship which holds the promise of even greater cooperation and a broader strategic partnership.
“As we address an array of increasingly complex regional and global challenges, the Kingdom of Morocco will be, more than ever, a true friend and loyal ally of the United States,” the Sovereign wrote, voicing His determination to work closely with Trump to “advance our shared interests and further enhance our unique alliance across all levels of cooperation.”
