In an interview published on Monday by French newspaper L'Opinion, Abdelmadjid Tebboune described the Moroccan military barracks project as an escalation that must stop. A statement that confirms the concerns of Algeria despite clarifications made by Morocco.
While comparing the Renault plant in Tangier to the one in Algeria, President Abdelmajid Tebboune accused Morocco’s «lobbyists» of ruining the country’s diplomatic ties with France.
Since February 22, Morocco has observed silence regarding the Algerian Hirak. That position was formalized on March 16. However, this «non-interference» in the domestic affairs of the eastern neighbor was not always the policy followed by Rabat.
