In a bid to strengthen bilateral cooperation and exchange experiences in the security field, Director-General of National Security and Territorial Surveillance, Abdellatif Hammouchi, signed a memorandum of understanding with General-Director of the Brazilian Federal Police, Andrei Augusto Passos Rodrigues, on Tuesday in Agadir. The MoU was signed during a working visit by General-Director of the Brazilian Federal Police to the Kingdom of Morocco, the Directorate General of National Security (DGSN) said in a press release. Aiming to develop cooperation channels between Moroccan and Brazilian security services, the MoU focuses on fighting transnational organized crime, including drug trafficking, terrorism, human trafficking, and cybercrime. Operationally, the MoU provides for promoting experience exchange in police training, information exchange, and supporting joint investigations. It also establishes permanent contact mechanisms between the two parties. The visit offered the opportunity for Rodrigues to witness the annual DGSN Open Days and its focus on community policing. This visit embodies the central role that Moroccan security services play within the international cooperation system. They are a reliable partner, capable of meeting growing security challenges, and a regional hub for police cooperation with various countries.
