Following the conclusion of the 35th Africa Cup of Nations, hosted by Morocco from December 21, 2025 to January 18, 2026, His Majesty King Mohammed VI expressed deep appreciation to the Moroccan people for their decisive role in the tournament\u2019s outstanding success.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In a Royal Communiqu\u00e9, the King praised citizens across the Kingdom for their collective effort, highlighting the unity, hospitality, and civic spirit demonstrated throughout the month-long continental competition. The event, widely acclaimed both in Africa and internationally, marked a historic milestone for Moroccan football and for the country\u2019s global standing.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Special recognition was extended to millions of Moroccan supporters\u2014women, men, and children\u2014whose unwavering and exemplary support propelled the national team to a remarkable achievement: finishing among the world\u2019s top eight national teams. The result, the communiqu\u00e9 noted, reflects years of strategic investment in sports infrastructure and development, as well as the patriotic commitment of talented players from the Moroccan diaspora who proudly chose to represent their homeland.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Beyond sporting success, the tournament showcased Morocco\u2019s broader development progress. According to the communiqu\u00e9, the Africa Cup of Nations offered a clear measure of the country\u2019s qualitative leap forward\u2014driven by a long-term vision and a uniquely Moroccan development model that places citizens at the heart of national ambitions.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

While the final match against Senegal was unfortunately marred by regrettable incidents in its closing moments, the Royal statement emphasized that such episodes cannot overshadow the deeper meaning of the event. Once emotions subside, the communiqu\u00e9 affirmed, Africa\u2019s enduring spirit of fraternity will prevail. Morocco expressed pride in having delivered a month of popular celebration and sporting passion, contributing to the growth and international visibility of African football.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Addressing criticism and attempts at discreditation, King Mohammed VI reaffirmed his confidence in the Moroccan people\u2019s wisdom and restraint. The communiqu\u00e9 underscored that no hostile intentions can undermine the historic bonds between African nations, nor the strong partnerships Morocco continues to build across the continent.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The statement concluded by reaffirming Morocco\u2019s identity as a committed African nation\u2014faithful to the values of solidarity, cooperation, and mutual respect. Guided by the King\u2019s vision, Morocco will continue to work toward a united and prosperous Africa, sharing its experience, expertise, and know-how in the service of collective progress.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
