In a meeting broadcasted on Facebook, Morocco’s former Prime Minister Abdelilah Benkirane accused the United Arab Emirates of harassing the Justice and Development Party’s politicians, stressing that Morocco’s foreign policy is dictated by King Mohammed VI.
At the beginning of the 21st century, Morocco and Libya worked on strengthening their bilateral ties. In 2001, King Mohammed VI visited Tripoli, where he met Colonel Muammar Gaddafi. The latter, however, was rude to the Moroccan monarch whom he called «my son».
King Mohammed VI sent a message on Monday to the intergovernmental conference on the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration. For the Sovereign, migration has always been an important question for Morocco.
