Bolstering U.S. and Morocco Alliance: AH-64 Apache Helicopters Emphasize Strategic Partnership
The official delivery of the first batch of AH-64 Apache attack helicopters underscores the robust partnership between the U.S. and Morocco as a major non-NATO ally. General Michael Langley, the Commander of U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM), emphasized this point during a ceremony held at the Royal Moroccan Air Force’s first base in Salé.
In his address, General Langley praised Morocco’s leadership in regional security, both within the Maghreb-Sahel area and across Africa. He highlighted that African armies are looking up to Morocco, viewing it as a benchmark for defense and stability. He expressed confidence that the U.S.-Morocco partnership would continue to grow, benefiting security, stability, and prosperity across the continent.
Langley also referred to Morocco as a “security exporter” and a key player in regional peace. This milestone, he explained, is more than just an acquisition of military equipment; it represents a historic partnership that has lasted nearly 250 years. He recalled the longstanding relationship between Morocco and the U.S. since the foundation of the United States, noting the importance of bilateral cooperation.
The event was attended by various Moroccan officials, including the Minister Delegate for National Defense Administration Abdeltif Loudyi, the Minister of Industry and Trade Ryad Mezzour, and other senior military figures, alongside an important U.S. delegation led by General Langley and U.S. Chargé d'Affaires in Morocco Aimee Cutrona.
