Morocco is much more politically stable and friendly than Algeria or (sadly now) Tunisia, let alone Egypt or Libya. It's also in their best interests, as reducing the importance of natural gas, that their frenemy Algeria is a major exporter of, enhances their geopolitical influence over Algeria, e.g. to obtain recognition of their claims to West Sahara. That said, anything can happen, monarchies can be overthrown, and Europe would be well-advised to keep additional capacity on tap domestically so it is not at the mercy of a new regime in Morocco the way it was with Russian gas.
