Morocco is a country of great strategic importance to the UK whose energy future depends on stronger ties with Morocco, said Labor MP Joe Powell in an Op-Ed published Thursday in the UK HuffPost. The UK and Morocco share a deep historical relationship spanning over 800 years, making it one of the world’s oldest diplomatic partnerships. In return, the UK exports cars, refined oil, and metals to Morocco, demonstrating a mutually beneficial relationship. Furthermore, Morocco is playing a key role in the electric vehicle (EV) battery supply chain, becoming strategic hub in the global transition to clean energy. As the UK seeks to deepen trade and energy partnerships, Morocco stands out as a valuable ally, offering exciting opportunities for sustainable growth and technological advancement, said the Labor MP.
