“Morocco is a strategic and fundamental partner for Spain, just as Spain is for Morocco,” said Ms. Castro in a statement to MAP, emphasizing her country’s desire to develop further cooperation with Rabat.

“We are united by numerous historical and cultural ties and by a proximity that makes mutual cooperation beneficial for both countries,” observed the former Secretary of State, noting that the visit carried out by the President of the Spanish Government in Morocco testifies to the ”interest” always expressed by Spain to maintain ”good relations with a neighboring and friendly country like Morocco”.

This visit is a continuation of the meeting of Mr. Pedro Sanchez with HM King Mohammed VI in April 2022 and the High Level Meeting, held on February 1 and 2, 2023 in Rabat, recalled Ms. Castro, noting that these meetings were crowned by the adoption of a ”renewed and ambitious” Roadmap and the signing of around twenty cooperation agreements ”beneficial for both countries”.

”The two governments are driven by a firm will to move forward on the same path and implement these agreements,” she said, emphasizing the ”fundamental importance” of Morocco in the management of migratory flows and in circular migration.

The President of the Spanish Government made a working visit to Morocco this Wednesday, marked by the audience granted to him by His Majesty King Mohammed VI, may God help him.

This visit is part of the continuity of the new phase of bilateral relations, which began since the meeting between His Majesty the King, may God glorify Him, and the President of the Spanish Government, in April 2022, and the adoption, on this occasion , of the Joint Declaration between the two countries.
