Royal gesture for Palestine: a tradition of solidarity and concrete actions
For the political scientist, the humanitarian aid provided by the Kingdom of Morocco is part of a long tradition of humanitarian support in response to various occasions. The latest being the sending of food aid during the holy month of Ramadan, an operation marked by an unprecedented breakthrough via the Kerem Shalom crossing. Morocco’s incessant efforts towards Palestine have always been a source of hope, based on deeply rooted values of solidarity. They embody concrete action that goes beyond simple speech.
This royal gesture, continues Mohamed Bouden, “ is added to the register of initiatives of His Majesty King Mohammed VI, President of the Al-Quds Committee, aimed at supporting Palestine. The nature, timing and quantity of humanitarian aid – 40 tonnes of medicines and medical equipment – demonstrate the Kingdom’s keen awareness of the urgent needs in the Gaza Strip, where the health system is suffering from a serious shortage “.
This humanitarian aid is also a manifestation of the principled position of the Kingdom of Morocco on the Palestinian question, a central pillar of its foreign policy. “In addition to the humanitarian and concrete dimensions, with the Bayt Mal Al-Quds Agency operating for 26 years, Morocco continues to act on the political and diplomatic fronts. It constantly engages international powers to promote peace in the Middle East and raise awareness of the dangers of escalation and unilateral Israeli actions. adds the president of the Atlas Center for the analysis of political and institutional indicators.
Effective royal diplomacy
Delivering this humanitarian aid smoothly and securely to Gaza would not have been possible without intensive diplomatic work with all parties in the region. This demonstrates once again the influence and respect that royal diplomacy enjoys, both among Palestinians and Israelis, as well as international powers, including the United States.
This success represents a notable diplomatic achievement for the benefit of the Palestinians in Gaza and reinforces the efforts of humanitarian mechanisms operating in the region within the framework of international humanitarian law. Morocco, faithful to its independent vision, continues to work with calm and discernment to ease the suffering of the Palestinian brothers and respond to their relentless call.
This humanitarian initiative by His Majesty King Mohammed VI constitutes an eloquent expression for the entire world of the importance of reaching out to the Palestinians in these difficult times.says Mohamed Bouden, an expert in contemporary international affairs.
