King Mohammed VI Receives Diplomatic Message from U.S. Leadership
A historic message from the President of the United States, Donald Trump, reached King Mohammed VI on the occasion of the 27th anniversary of the Throne Day celebrations. In this communication, the U.S. head of state reaffirmed Washington’s recognition of Morocco’s full sovereignty over its Western Sahara territory, along with unwavering support for Rabat’s autonomy initiative as the cornerstone of a lasting resolution to the longstanding territorial dispute.
U.S. Stands Firm on Western Sahara Sovereignty and Autonomy Plan
The American president’s message left no room for ambiguity: «The United States unequivocally recognizes Morocco’s sovereignty over Western Sahara and endorses the Moroccan autonomy proposal as the only credible, realistic, and fair foundation for a sustainable solution to this decades-old territorial conflict,» he declared.
Dismissing alternative approaches as counterproductive, the U.S. leader emphasized that «any other path only perpetuates the status quo,» which he described as «unacceptable.» He stressed the urgency of resolving the dispute promptly, stating, «This disagreement must end now. The United States will continue to drive progress toward this goal without delay.»
Strengthening Strategic Ties Through Decades of Partnership
In a gesture of solidarity, the U.S. president extended warm congratulations to King Mohammed VI and the Moroccan people, highlighting «250 years of shared history, trust, and mutual respect» between the two nations. He praised the Moroccan monarch’s «wise leadership,» describing him as «a pillar of stability in the region.»
The American leader also commended Morocco’s «unwavering commitment to peace, countering extremism, and safeguarding regional security—both for its own citizens and for Americans.» He underscored Rabat’s pivotal role in the Abraham Accords, framing the partnership as «invaluable» for U.S. interests. «Together, we will also work to ensure the stability of the Sahel,» he added.
Economic Collaboration Takes Center Stage in U.S.-Morocco Vision
The U.S. president outlined a bold economic agenda, directing his administration to «pursue robust economic and social development initiatives alongside Morocco, including within the Western Sahara territory.» He spotlighted key sectors poised for collaboration, such as technology, innovation, energy, artificial intelligence, critical minerals, and defense—all identified as strategic priorities for the partnership’s future.
The message concluded with a forward-looking vision: «Together, we will build a new era—one rooted in shared prosperity and mutual benefit for both our peoples.»
