Morocco’s Director General of National Security and Territorial Surveillance, Abdelatif Hammouchi, welcomed Faisal Shahkar, head of the United Nations Police and UN Under-Secretary-General for Rule of Law, on Tuesday in Marrakech.
The meeting took place at the Manara Gardens, the venue for the 93rd General Assembly of the International Criminal Police Organization (INTERPOL), which runs through November 27, 2025, the General Directorate of National Security said in a statement.
During the meeting, Shahkar conveyed the UN Secretary-General’s interest in strengthening cooperation and security partnerships with Morocco’s national police, aiming to reinforce UN police capacities both at headquarters in New York and in peacekeeping missions deployed in conflict areas worldwide.
Shahkar emphasized the value of Moroccan police personnel, citing their field experience, high-level training, and language skills that enable deployment across diverse regions globally.
The meeting is part of a series of bilateral discussions Hammouchi is holding with leaders of national delegations and international and regional organizations attending INTERPOL’s General Assembly. These discussions are intended to bolster security cooperation and partnerships between Morocco and international partners, addressing cross-border crime and enhancing comprehensive security efforts.
