The relationship between “two strong nations in the face of adversity, which have gone through key moments hand in hand, as the first Conference of the Non-Aligned Movement in Belgrade in 1961, and between “two peoples united in the defense of their national sovereignty and their respective territorial integrity” were other points Bourita emphasized.

According to him, the connection between the two nations “is not only a reflection of a close kinship based in history, but it is also [the] major attribute of the credibility and trustworthiness enjoyed by our two states in world society and in our bilateral relations.”

Morocco and Serbia “have a same core of principles that unify our aspirations and fuse our external activity,” he remarked, despite their geographical separation.

The minister continued, adding that the friendship between the two nations “has not been ignored,” saying that Morocco and Serbia have “gone a long way to expand relations in many ways, notably in the most sincere and structural elements” based on these values.

“I am convinced that we can accomplish more. It is the duty of our governments to offer the appropriate material for this jubilee in order to live up to the aspirations of our two heads of state and our two peoples, “He was tense.
