Speaking in Amman at the opening of the 6th Conference on a Middle East free of weapons of mass destruction, Morocco’s UN Ambassador Omar Hilale emphasized the shared commitment of King Mohammed VI and King Abdullah II to peace and coexistence in the region.

He praised the deep ties between Morocco and Jordan and called it a “fortunate coincidence” that Morocco chairs this year’s conference held for the first time outside the UN.

Hilale stressed that global conflicts and weakened multilateralism make it urgent to establish a WMD-free zone in the Middle East. He acknowledged the difficulty of this goal but insisted that political will and regional cooperation can make it achievable. Only diplomacy and dialogue, he argued, can build lasting trust and replace confrontation with collective security and sustainable peace.

The three-day conference saw full regional participation—including Iran but not Israel—and drew experts from across the globe. Hilale noted the importance of learning from the world’s five existing nuclear-weapon-free zones, highlighting the Middle East’s chance to become a model of development and peaceful cooperation.
