Morocco is preparing to close its embassy in Algeria in the coming days, after the neighboring nation decided to sever diplomatic ties with Morocco on August 24.
A Hespress Eng source from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that “It is something sure to happen in these coming days.”
On Thursday, Algeria said it was able to provide gas to Spain through the Medgaz pipeline, excluding Morocco and the Maghreb-Europe pipeline that runs across the Kingdom and plays a key role in supplying gas to Morocco.
Following Algeria’s decision, the Kingdom stressed that it “will remain a credible and loyal partner for the Algerian people and will continue to act in their favor, with wisdom and responsibility for the development of healthy and fruitful inter-Maghreb relations”, according to a statement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
On his throne day speech, King Mohamed VI deplored the “tensions” with Algeria, calling on Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune “to uphold wisdom” and “work in unison for the development of relations” between the two countries.
