The United States commends the Kingdom of Morocco for repatriating eight Moroccan foreign terrorist fighters from Syria. Morocco is a highly capable partner in the Global Coalition to Defeat ISIS, and we appreciate its commitment to countering terrorism. Morocco’s actions should encourage other nations to repatriate and prosecute their citizens who have traveled to fight for ISIS.
Repatriating foreign terrorist fighters to their countries of origin is the best solution to prevent them from returning to the battlefield.
