During this ceremony, Amrani underlined the importance attached by Morocco to the OAS, the premier regional forum for political discussion, policy analysis and decision-making in Western Hemisphere affairs.
He also welcomed the relations of friendship and cooperation between the Kingdom and the member states of this Pan-American organization, based in particular on mutual respect and shared prosperity.
The diplomat and Secretary General Almagro seized this opportunity to review relations between Morocco and the OAS, the means to further develop them as well as possible areas of cooperation.
Amrani stressed Morocco’s commitment to strengthening political dialogue with this regional institution and to promoting a more fruitful and in-depth exchange in areas of common interest.
« We greatly appreciate the Kingdom of Morocco’s role as a Permanent Observer and its interest in strengthening dialogue and cooperation with the OAS and Latin America and the Caribbean, » Almagro told the Press.
« The OAS values the importance of building stronger ties between the Americas and African countries to address common global challenges, and thanks Morocco for its leadership, » he added.
The OAS brings together all 35 independent states of the Americas and constitutes the main political, juridical, and social governmental forum in the Hemisphere.
Morocco is a permanent observer at the OAS since November 1981.
The organization uses a four-pronged approach to effectively implement its essential purposes, based on its main pillars: democracy, human rights, security, and development.
