Morocco's candidacy for a non-permanent seat on the United Nations Security Council for the term spanning 2028-2029 is a significant reflection of the Kingdom's weight and status as a pivotal regional and international player, according to Nasser Bourita, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation, and Moroccans Abroad. The elections for these coveted seats are slated to take place in June 2027. During the discussions surrounding the 81st session of the UN General Assembly, Bourita emphasized various Moroccan initiatives that showcase the country's commitment to disarmament, African Atlantic cooperation, development financing, and combating hate speech. He highlighted the recent 8th ministerial meeting of the Atlantic African States Process, which took place in New York, as well as upcoming meetings scheduled in Gabon, Cape Verde, and Morocco.
