"The Senegalese people have entrusted you with the responsibility of leading your nation by electing you President of the Republic of Senegal in the first round of the elections," reads the King's message, expressing his well-wishes for Faye's success in this esteemed role.

His majesty King Mohammed VI's felicitations underscore the enduring cooperation between Morocco and Senegal, surpassing mere political alliances and deeply rooted in the human connections that bind their peoples together.
