Morocco and Spain maintain extensive diplomatic, commercial, and military ties.[1] The Morocco–Spain border separates the plazas de soberanía (including Melilla and Ceuta) on the Mediterranean coast from the Moroccan mainland. Morocco's foreign policy has focused on Western partners, including neighboring Spain.[2] Relations have, however, been historically tense and conflictive.[3][4]
In March 2023, Spain's Minister of Foreign Affairs, European Union and Cooperation, Jose Manuel Albares, stated that the Morocco-Spain relationship had achieved its new all-time high.[5]
