In a landmark achievement, Morocco has been elected as the Vice-President of Interpol for Africa. The election took place during Interpol's 92nd General Assembly in Glasgow, Scotland, held from November 4-7, 2024. Morocco's representative, Mohamed Dkhissi, Director of Judicial Police and Head of the National Central Bureau of Interpol in Rabat, secured the position with overwhelming support from 96 member states.
This victory is a testament to Morocco's unwavering commitment to bolstering regional and international security. The country's tireless efforts to enhance South-South security cooperation and its proactive role in fostering stability have not gone unnoticed. Morocco's candidacy was fueled by a strong desire to contribute to the development of police structures in Africa and to share its extensive expertise with security services across the continent.
As the new Vice-President, Morocco is poised to lead the charge in coordinating efforts with national central bureaus in African countries. The goal is to respond swiftly and effectively to the evolving threats posed by terrorism and the malicious use of artificial intelligence and new technologies by organized crime groups. This election is in perfect alignment with Morocco's strategic vision of forging robust relations with African nations on all fronts, including security.
