Moroccan King Voices Strong Support for Saudi Arabia Amid Houthi Attacks
In a powerful statement reflecting solidarity with Saudi Arabia, King Mohammed VI of Morocco condemned the ongoing Houthi attacks targeting the Kingdom, particularly emphasizing the threats posed to the holy cities of Mecca and Medina. The Moroccan monarch articulated that any assault on Saudi Arabia is, in essence, an attack on Morocco, underscoring the historical and religious bonds that unite the two nations. In correspondence addressed to Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, King Mohammed VI reaffirmed Morocco's unwavering commitment to the security, sovereignty, and stability of Saudi Arabia.
Expressing deep concern over the escalation of attacks directed at civilian and economic infrastructure within Saudi Arabia, the King noted that the efforts to target Mecca and Medina have intensified Morocco's condemnation of such acts. He stated, "At this sensitive moment for your country, historical responsibility, religious values, and strategic considerations require all of us to stand together in defending rights, sovereignty, security, and the holy sites of the Muslim nation." The King highlighted that these assaults not only threaten the safety of Saudi citizens and pilgrims but also insult the sentiments of over 1.8 billion Muslims worldwide.
In his remarks, King Mohammed VI described the actions of the Houthis as criminal and voiced strong disapproval of those who support, finance, and arm them. His statement emphasizes the need for unity among Muslim nations in the face of such threats, reaffirming Morocco's stance as a steadfast ally of Saudi Arabia during these challenging times.
