Arabic–African Union Treaty

Top

The Arabic–African Union Treaty was signed on 13 August 1984 between King Hassan II of Morocco and Muammar Gaddafi of Libya. It was approved by Moroccan voters in a referendum on 31 August, and by the Libyan General People's Congress.[1] The aim was to establish a "union of states" between the two, and eventually to create a "Great Arab Maghreb".[1]

The treaty startled the administration of US president Ronald Reagan, and eventually led to the establishment of the African Union in 2002.
