This declaration shows the strengthening of diplomatic and cooperative ties between Morocco and Senegal, and reflects a shared commitment to regional stability and the resolution of long-standing territorial disputes through dialogue and international law.
During today’s joint meeting, prime ministers Akhannouch and Sonko also reaffirmed their countries’ commitment to strengthening cooperation across a wide range of sectors.
They emphasized the shared values of brotherhood, solidarity, and mutual respect, noting the contributions of Moroccan and Senegalese communities living in each other’s countries as a reflection of their enduring ties.
The session served as a platform to explore new avenues of collaboration in diplomacy, trade, culture, and development, and concluded with the adoption of a joint statement alongside the signing of multiple agreements, memorandums of understanding, and cooperation protocols.
