China–Morocco relations refer to the bilateral relations between China and Morocco. China and Morocco established diplomatic relations in November 1958.[1]
Chinese development finance to Morocco
From 2000 to 2012, there are approximately 36 Chinese official development finance projects identified in Morocco through various media reports.[2] These projects range from a $248 million MOU with the Export-Import Bank of China to build the Berchid-Beni Mellal highway in 2011,[3] to a CNY 150 million preferential loan agreement in Rabat to build and equip eight private general hospitals in various regions in Morocco.[4]
In November 2016, Morocco announced it is currently planning to develop a new economic hub in the north of the country, with the assistance of development organisations and Chinese multinationals, including the international aeronautics firm Haite Group, Morocco-China International and BMCE Bank of Africa. The project is projected to cost $US11 billion.[5]
Human rights
In June 2020, Morocco was one of 53 countries that backed the Hong Kong national security law at the United Nations.[6]
