Morocco's Strategy in Dealing with Sahel Threats

Abstract

The security challenges in Morocco revolve around several threats that have specific characteristics stemming from Morocco's geopolitical situation. Faced with these multifaceted threats, Morocco must be aware of the sources and levels of transnational organized crime affecting its territory to be able to prevent its growth, hence the need for an effective security strategy. The emergence of terrorist armed groups, massive migratory flows, and the increased illegal activities are the main threats in the Sahel that can affect the security in North Africa. Today's challenges require North African countries to adopt a comprehensive approach that reconciles development and security capacity building in the Sahel.
