As part of the efforts made since the beginning of the crisis between Ukraine and Russia, members of the Moroccan Embassy in Ukraine have been stationed in the city of Lviv since March 1 to assist Moroccan citizens on Ukrainian territory.

Several actions have been carried out in this framework since March 1, according to the Moroccan Embassy in Ukraine, which keeps in constant contact with the crisis unit established within the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation, and Moroccans Abroad to coordinate actions and report difficulties faced by Moroccan citizens in neighboring countries such as Poland, Slovakia, Romania, and Hungary.
The Moroccan ambassador to Ukraine, Faouz El Achabi, met with the official of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Lviv and the representative of security and borders, according to the diplomatic representation.

El Achabi reported the problems faced by Moroccans during these talks, which were held in consultation with Ukrainian officials, and called for the measures to leave Ukraine in good shape to be made easier.

Several assistance actions have been carried out in favor of Moroccans in Ukraine, according to the Moroccan Embassy, citing in particular the regular mobilization at the level of the four border posts with Poland, in order to direct Moroccan citizens to the least crowded posts, and the medical assistance provided to a Moroccan student before leaving Ukrainian territory on March 3, 2022.

The Embassy further stated that it actively monitors the status of Moroccan citizens in the cities of Soumy, Kharkiv, Kherson, and Marioupol, and routinely updates them on Moroccan authorities’ efforts to resolve their problems.

Thousands of people have been able to flee Ukraine thanks to the support of Embassy personnel. According to the same source, more than 150 Laissez-passer have been issued since the Embassy’s installation in Lviv, including four issued this Friday to a family with a young child.

Following its intervention with Ukrainian authorities, the Embassy stated that it had resolved the blockade caused by the refusal of some electronic passes at some border crossings, as well as the situation of four Moroccans imprisoned, with the help of representatives of the Moroccan community in Ukraine.

The Embassy is now in contact with Moscow about two Moroccans who are not listed in the Embassy’s files. In this regard, an emergency meeting with Ukrainian officials could take place in Lviv on Friday.

Morocco’s embassy in Kiev has set up a number of phone numbers for civilians to call in order to assist in the evacuation of Moroccan nationals.

Morocco has asked its residents to leave Ukraine as soon as possible due to the potential of war. “The Embassy of the Kingdom of Morocco suggests that Moroccan people in Ukraine evacuate Kiev for their own safety, using the available commercial flights,” the embassy said in an urgent press release received by Morocco Telegraph.

In the midst of a tense standoff between Russia and Ukraine, and US fears of a possible Russian invasion of the country, the Moroccan government has ordered its residents to leave Ukraine as soon as possible.

The embassy is requesting that any Moroccans in Kiev or Ukraine contact the following phone numbers for assistance: 00380931961457, 00380637837591, and 00380930590259.
Any citizen planning to travel to Ukraine should “postpone their travel for the time being,” according to the embassy.

Morocco’s residents are being evacuated from Ukraine amid a diplomatic standoff between Russia and the United States, which fears Russia is planning an invasion of Ukraine in the coming week. Despite Moscow’s denials, a number of countries are evacuating their citizens due to worries of a conflict erupting in the eastern European country.

Tensions on Ukraine’s frontiers have arisen as a result of Russia’s large-scale buildup of troops, armor, and equipment around its borders with Ukraine. According to US intelligence authorities, Russia is plotting a large-scale invasion, yet populations in both Russia and Ukraine appear unconcerned about a possible outbreak of hostilities.
