HM King Mohammed VI sent a message of congratulations to Vladimir Poutine following his re-election as president of the Federation of Russia.
"By re-electing you president of the Russian Federation, the Russian people have renewed their confidence in Your Excellency. It therefore gives me great pleasure to send you my warmest congratulations, together with my best wishes for continued success in your high office and in leading your people towards further progress and prosperity," said the message.

"I should like to take this opportunity to say how satisfied I am with the long-standing ties rooted in close friendship, mutual esteem, active solidarity and fruitful cooperation between our countries. I highly value our bilateral relations, which have been growing steadily in recent years thanks to our shared determination to develop them to the fullest extent possible. As you start a new term of office, I am sure our relations will become stronger in all sectors for the mutual benefit of our people," said HM the King in the message.

"With that in mind, I should like to say, once again, how keen I am to continue working with Your Excellency to strengthen our strategic, multi-dimensional partnership and to strive harder in order to enhance our regular consultation and coordination regarding all regional and international matters of common concern. This should enable us to contribute to serving global peace and security, while fighting all forms of terrorism and promoting understanding, concord and coexistence in the world," the message concluded.
