Three African non-permanent members of the United Nations Security Council have formally commended Morocco for organizing a landmark international conference in support of the Central African Republic, reinforcing Rabat’s growing diplomatic role on the continent. The Democratic Republic of Congo, Somalia, and Liberia — collectively known as the “A3” — voiced their appreciation during a Security Council briefing on the situation in the Central African Republic (CAR) held Wednesday in New York. The session focused on progress achieved since the Partners’ Roundtable on the CAR, hosted by Morocco in Casablanca last September. The meeting also provided a platform for Morocco’s Permanent Representative to the UN, Omar Hilale, to brief the Security Council on peace-building advances in the CAR. On behalf of the Peace-building Commission, he congratulated President Faustin Archange Touadéra on his re-election and on the Central African government’s commitment to democracy and institutional continuity.
