The United States' Embassy in Morocco transferred on Tuesday, through the office of the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA), a supply of personal protective equipment to laboratory technicians at the National Institute of Hygiene in Rabat.
According to a statement by the embassy, «this equipment goes directly to safeguarding the lives of Morocco's healthcare workers who are on the front lines in the fight against the novel coronavirus».
«This equipment transfer is part of over seven years of close cooperation between DTRA and the government of Morocco. This partnership's focus is on saving lives and mitigating threats to ensure the National Security for both of our countries», noted the same source.
On this occasion, U.S. Ambassador to Morocco David Fischer hailed the initiative as another concrete example of the mutual benefits of the U.S.-Morocco relationship.
«We are about investing in institutions, and in people – in the capacity of Moroccans to serve their country and their fellow citizens. At times of crisis like this, we can all be proud of the deep and long-standing relationship that makes this kind of cooperation possible», he stressed.
