A joint task force between Morocco and France convened in Salé, Morocco, to advance coordination for the 2030 FIFA World Cup, which the two nations will co-host alongside Spain and Portugal. The meeting, held on April 2, 2026, was chaired by Moroccan Interior Minister Abdelouafi Laftit and French Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin.
The discussions focused on security cooperation, mobility of people and goods, and the operational framework for the tournament. Both ministers emphasized the strategic partnership between the two countries and their commitment to organizing a successful and secure event.
The 2030 World Cup is unique as it will be hosted across three continents, with matches in Morocco, Spain, Portugal, and also in South America to commemorate the tournament's centenary. This task force is a key mechanism for bilateral planning between the Moroccan and French governments ahead of the games.
