Rwanda News Agency (RNA) has highlighted the privileged partnership between Morocco and Italy in several strategic areas, including in the political, economic and cultural fields.

In an article dedicated to the joint press conference held last week between the Moroccan minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccans abroad, Nasser Bourita, and his Italian counterpart Luigi Di Maio, RNA stressed that the Kingdom is a partner of “great importance” for Italy.

Quoting the Italian top diplomat, the agency noted that “Morocco is a central partner for Italy not only from a political point of view but also from a cultural and economic perspective”.

The joint declaration on the Multidimensional Strategic Partnership signed in 2019 between Rabat and Rome represents a major step forward, ARI said, adding that trade between the two countries has increased by 4.6% over the past year.

The Rwandan agency underlined that Bourita and his Italian counterpart have discussed important regional and international issues including the migration issue and the Libyan crisis, adding that Italy has welcomed Morocco’s commitment to the Libyan issue and the latest initiatives undertaken by the Kingdom which brought together Libyan delegations in Bouznika.

The Italian minister, the source pointed out, expressed the importance of cultural, scientific and technological cooperation with Morocco which is “a fundamental pillar of bilateral relations”.

He added that Italy is fully prepared to organize, as soon as the epidemiological situation improves, a “business forum” focusing on important sectors in Morocco.
