Morocco UN Security Council candidacy

Overview

Morocco has officially announced its candidacy for a non-permanent seat on the United Nations Security Council for the 2028-2029 term. Foreign Minister Nasser Bourita confirmed the bid during the 81st session of the UN General Assembly in New York.

If elected, this would be Morocco’s fourth term on the Council. The candidacy is based on a vision to position the Kingdom as a contributor to international peace, security, and sustainable development. The country intends to focus on issues such as climate change, counter-terrorism, regional stability, and multilateral cooperation.

Diplomatic efforts are expected to prioritize support from African nations. Bourita also highlighted Moroccan-led initiatives, including the African convention on the disarmament, demobilization, and reintegration of child soldiers and the Atlantic African States Process (PEAA), which focuses on maritime cooperation and security.
