Rwanda, Morocco enjoy existing relations that took formal shape after King Mohammed VI visited Rwanda in October 2016 as part of his commitment to a new African diplomacy. President Paul Kagame had also visited Morocco in June 2016.<\/p>\n

Since then, both countries have signed dozens of cooperation and trade agreements, vowing to shoulder their continental responsibility in facing \u201cshared challenges.\u201d<\/p>\n

As both countries position themselves as continental leaders and champions of pan-Africanism and African integration, they have placed their improving diplomatic ties under the banner of \u201cresponsibility sharing\u201d and \u201cpan-African vision\u201d for the future.<\/p>\n
