On Thursday, November 21, the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued an arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Does this decision impact Morocco ?
The Justice and Development Party and the Party of Progress and Socialism welcomed the International Criminal Court's issuance of arrest warrants yesterday for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant. Meanwhile, the Moroccan government has yet to issue an official stance.
While the pomp and «declarations of love» were prevalent when the announcement of the normalization of relations between Arab countries and Israel was announced, with Morocco all the folklore has been discarded in favor of serious meetings.
Israeli opposition Labor party is about to be led by either of two politicians of Moroccan descent. Amir Peretz and Avi Gabbay will both compete to win the leadership of the left-wing party as one of them might be the next Israeli Prime Minister.
Morocco did not leave the ECOWAS summit empty-handed as the union decided to invite King Mohammed VI to their next meeting to give its approval to Morocco’s integration. In the absence of the sovereign, the Israeli Prime Minister was the big attraction of the reunion in Monrovia.
