DRC President affirms support for Moroccan Sahara
Today in Rabat, the Minister of Foreign Affairs and African Cooperation and Moroccans Abroad, Nasser Bourita, received the Minister Delegate for Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Crispan Mabasco. He carried a written message to King Mohammed VI from the President of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Félix Antoine Tshisekedi. This visit comes amid the evolving relations between Morocco and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, which in recent years have seen strengthened political, economic, and diplomatic cooperation. The Democratic Republic of the Congo has expressed support for Morocco's territorial integrity and the autonomy initiative. The DRC is among the African countries that have shown tangible support for Morocco, notably by opening a consulate in Dakhla in 2020. This is significant especially considering its potential bid for non-permanent membership on the UN Security Council for 2026–2027, where its support for the Moroccan initiative is expected to positively influence efforts by the United Nations to resolve the Western Sahara conflict.
