758 foreign soldiers benefited from Moroccan military training centers’ courses in 2021, despite the epidemiological situation that limited the number of attendants, says Abdellatif Loudiyi, Minister Delegate to the Prime Minister in charge of the National Defense Administration
During the discussion of the sub-budget of the National Defense Administration, Loudiyi said “military training is quite important for strengthening the relations of cooperation that link the Royal Armed Forces with some friendly and brotherly countries, especially African ones.”
The secret session was attended by the Committee on Foreign Affairs, Borders, National Defense and Occupied Moroccan Territories of the House of Councilors.
In his presentation, Loudiyi said that schools and military training centers in Morocco receive annually foreign trainees of various ranks, according to a program that takes into account the requests of these countries as well as the absorptive capacity.
The centers and training schools of the Royal Gendarmerie received 83 foreign trainees in 2021, 73 of them represent the gendarmerie forces of a number of friendly African countries.
On the other hand, the Royal Armed Forces continued to train their personnel, as about 21,600 trainees benefited from basic military training and continuous training for the current year, including members of the auxiliary forces.
Moreover, 13,162 members of the Royal Gendarmerie were trained in various training centers and schools affiliated with the Royal Gendarmerie and civil institutions of higher education in Morocco, in addition to other trainings abroad that included the security, judicial and military fields.
