Kosovo–Morocco relations

[1] During a September 2009 visit to Rabat, Serbian Foreign Minister Vuk Jeremić said that Moroccan leaders had confirmed that Rabat had consolidated its position on not recognising Kosovo.

Morocco's Foreign Minister Taieb Fassi Fihri stated that entities could not become states by "unilateral declarations of independence", but only through United Nations processes or mutual consent.
