Slovenia and Morocco have decided to further strengthen their political, social and economic bonds – the information was confirmed during the press release on 11th of June in Rabat. Moroccan foreign minister Nasser Baurita and Slovenian Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign and European Affairs Tanja Fajon have expressed mutual agreement in discussing further collaboration as they announced plans to establish embassies in the countries’ capitals, Rabat and Ljubljana, by the beginning of 2025. Slovenia has decided to support the Moroccan autonomy initiative, and they have both highlighted the importance of the United Nations in the political field as well as reaffirmed their support for the objectives of the UN Security Council.
