Since his accession to power, our diplomacy has been marked by the strengthening of links with neighbouring States (Mali, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau and Mauritania), those of the sub-region, Burkina Faso, Niger and Côte d’Ivoire. However le royaume Chérifien has not yet received la visite du Président de la République.. It is a tradition that the highest authorities of our two states meet: Abdoulaye Wade in May 2000, Macky Sall in July 2013. Le roi Mohammed 6 a séjourné dans notre pays en février 2023, in the framework of a visit of friendship and work.. Our relations with Morocco are secular, characterized by our common belonging to the Tidjianya, the métissage of our peoples, as well as their deep friendship. The perfect illustration of these particular and privileged relations is undoubtedly the erection of the Great Mosque of Dakar, whose designer is none other than King Mohamed 5, grandfather of the current sovereign Mohamed 6. This country hosts many of our students and the Académie Militaire Royale has trained some of our superior officers.
The European Union is committed to the development of a common foreign and security policy.
