The number of Moroccans residing in Spain over the past 20 years reached a staggering 900,000, reflecting a remarkable increase of 136%.
According to data released by the Spanish “Fundación Decisión,” the Moroccan population in Spain has experienced significant growth, starting from 370,000 individuals in 2003. This demographic surge demonstrates the soft power influence that Morocco wields in several European countries.
According to the extensive study, the majority of these Moroccan immigrants support the Kingdom’s foreign policy and hold a deep-rooted belief in defending the Moroccan Sahara and the territorial unity of the Kingdom. This collective stance positions them as a cohesive group aligned with the interests of Rabat.
The same source highlights that the Moroccan community holds the largest foreign population in Spain, surpassing other nationalities such as Romanians, British, and Colombians.
This growing Moroccan diaspora holds a significant and influential social position, the same source, particularly as Spain has transformed into a destination for settlement rather than a transit point to other European countries.
