Morocco's Foreign Ministry organized the Africa Day celebration in Rabat on Thursday under the theme “Morocco as an actor for collective emergence in Africa.”
2017 has been an “exceptional” year in the relations between Morocco and African countries, Nasser Bourita, the Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, said at the opening ceremony of the event.
In February, Morocco rejoined the AU after 33 years of absence.
Morocco’s return to the AU has crowned its strong commitment to Africa’s peace, stability and prosperity, Bourita said.
He noted that two-thirds of Morocco’s foreign investments are directed towards Africa, making the kingdom the largest African investor in West Africa and the second in the continent.
According to the minister, more than 1,000 Moroccan companies are operating in Africa and have invested 2.2 billion US dollars between 2008 and 2015.
Moroccan Prime Minister Saadeddine El Othmani and ambassadors of foreign countries also attended the celebration.
