AFRICOM chief says U.S. will co-develop with Morocco a Peacekeeping Center of Excellence

AFRICOM chief General Michael Langley has said that, for the time being, it is unlikely to relocate AFRICOM’s headquarters from Stuttgart, Germany, to Morocco. In remarks to the U.S. House Armed Services Committee, General Langley emphasized that Morocco serves as a regional leader and that the two countries will be co-founders of a state-of-the-art Peacekeeping Center of Excellence, capable of training thousands of personnel in critical skills, according to local Moroccan media.
