Egypt's Commitment to Morocco's Sovereignty
On April 6, 2026, the Arab Republic of Egypt officially declared its unwavering support for the territorial integrity of the Kingdom of Morocco during a meeting held in Cairo. This affirmation comes alongside Egypt's endorsement of UN Security Council Resolution 2797, which emphasizes the necessity of a mutually agreed-upon political solution concerning the issue of Western Sahara. This resolution highlights that genuine autonomy under Moroccan sovereignty is the most feasible solution for settling the Moroccan Sahara dispute.
This stance was formally articulated during the inaugural session of the Moroccan-Egyptian Coordination and Follow-up Committee, which was presided over by Moroccan Prime Minister Aziz Akhannouch and Egyptian Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouli. The meeting underlined Egypt's backing of the current UN roadmap, placing Morocco's autonomy initiative at the heart of the settlement process. This commitment not only reflects diplomatic solidarity but also reinforces the historical ties between Egypt and Morocco, further solidifying their mutual interests in regional stability and cooperation.
