A bipartisan US congressional delegation concluded its North Africa tour in Morocco, underscoring Rabat’s role as a strategic partner in Washington’s regional agenda.
After a stop in Tunis, lawmakers held talks in Rabat with Foreign Minister Nasser Bourita and Minister Delegate for Defense Administration Abdeltif Loudyi on deepening bilateral cooperation in security and defense and consolidating the Abraham Accords, where Morocco is seen as a key pillar.
Congressman Mike Lawler highlighted on X the “strategic importance of the partnership with Morocco,” calling the Kingdom “one of America’s most important diplomatic partners in North Africa” and recalling that it was the first country to recognize US sovereignty in 1777.
The Sahara issue featured in the discussions, with the delegation reaffirming support for Morocco’s autonomy plan, described by Lawler as “a pragmatic framework for lasting safety and progress.”
