Morocco’s diplomatic campaign in Latin America has finally paid off. After resuming diplomatic relations with the Kingdom in April 2017, the Cuban authorities have appointed their first ambassador to Rabat.
On Friday, King Mohammed VI flew to Cuba in an unofficial trip accompanied by Lalla Salma, Moulay El Hassan and Lalla Khadija. The royal family will spend a vacation in the republic which has declared several times its backup for the Polisario front. La Havana-based media reported that Cuban authorities rushed to reassure the Front about the King’s visit stressing on the fact that it would not affect their relations.
