The participation of a delegation on the High Instructions of His Majesty the King at this ceremony was another testimony o f the Royal attachment to strengthening this relationship, he noted, adding that it was also "an expression of trust from HM the King in the choices and decisions of the Senegalese people and the strong institutions of Senegal." He also pointed out that Fall's visit to Morocco, the first of its kind on a bilateral basis to a foreign country, is "the sign of a unique relationship between the two countries and a mutual attachment of Moroccan and Senegalese peoples to promoting bilateral relations". In this regard, Bourita reiterated the Kingdom's full willingness to share its experience and expertise with Senegal, in accordance with the High Royal Instructions, to strengthen bilateral relations in all areas. "We have many assets in the bilateral relationship, in particular these historical roots, this strong human relationship and this experience of very fruitful cooperation between the two countries,' he noted. Bourita also underlined that Morocco and Senegal are two actors of stability in Africa, adding t hat within pan-African regional organizations and the multilateral system, the two countries always work for the same values and goals. "Our political consultation mechanisms have always helped us to converge our priorities and initiatives,' he added.
