Morocco Recognizes Bolivia’s Interim Government Led by President Jeanine Añez

"The Kingdom of Morocco, which is following with interest the political situation in Bolivia, recognizes the constitutional Government of the President of the Plurinational State of Bolivia, Mrs. Jeanine Añez Chávez, and joins the efforts of the international community to contribute to the realization of the objectives set by the convening of general elections in Bolivia," says a statement from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccans Residing Abroad.

"This process will provide Bolivia with the necessary stability and prosperity for the Bolivian people, and will contribute to its regional and international influence," the same source specifies.

The Kingdom intends to strengthen its bilateral relations with Bolivia on the basis of the principles of respect for national sovereignty and territorial integrity, as well as non-interference in the internal affairs of each country. It also thanks the Plurinational State of Bolivia for "its wise position on the regional dispute around the Moroccan Sahara, thus affirming its commitment to help the parties reach a just, lasting and mutually acceptable political solution within the framework of the United Nations."

Furthermore, "Morocco agrees with the Plurinational State of Bolivia to implement the mechanism of bilateral consultations established in December 1999, the Convention on Economic, Scientific and Technical Cooperation of August 2000 and the Memorandum of Understanding on bilateral cooperation."
