Morocco’s Strategic Influence in Regional and African Contexts Highlighted in Royal Speech


Rabat: His Majesty King Mohammed VI’s Throne Day speech underscores Morocco’s unique position within its regional environment, as emphasized by the Secretary-General of the Institute for Cooperation with Foreign Countries, Gianni Lattanzio. The Kingdom, noted for its stability, is regarded as a reliable regional partner, with the royal speech emphasizing the importance of preserving Morocco’s achievements, accelerating reforms, and consolidating the foundations of inclusive growth.



According to Agence Marocaine De Presse, the Italian expert highlighted Morocco’s transformation of resilience into a catalyst for progress and international influence. This influence is particularly notable in the Mediterranean region, where Morocco sits at the intersection of Europe, Africa, and the Arab world. Lattanzio pointed out that this geographical advantage is complemented by a political commitment to fostering dialogue, easing tensions, and building enduring connections between the Mediterranean’s two shores.



His Majesty the King’s speech embodies this strategy by advocating for a partnership grounded in trust, responsibility, and equilibrium. Lattanzio emphasized that Morocco emerges as a vital player in ensuring the stability of the Euro-Mediterranean neighborhood.



Addressing the African aspect of the speech, Lattanzio noted that Morocco espouses a vision focused on the continent, prioritizing cooperation, integration, and shared development. This approach positions Morocco as a prominent actor in South-South cooperation. Through its investments, diplomatic efforts, and ability to harmonize sovereignty with openness, the Kingdom is playing a crucial role in fostering a more connected, confident, and capable Africa, ready to face its challenges.
