US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken hosted Morocco’s foreign minister Nasser Bourita in Washington today where the two discussed regional cooperation and strengthening bilateral relations.

Blinken spoke of “long US-Moroccan relations with multiple dimensions that his country seeks “to develop and deepen.”

In turn Bourita said common interests that bring Morocco and the US together include “climate issues and the Libyan crisis,” noting that “Morocco is working to strengthen the strategic partnership with Washington.”

Morocco’s Sahara was also on the agenda of the two diplomats.

The two also referred to relations between Morocco and Israel that were normalized in Dec. 2020 under US brokered deals.
