Moroccan authorities in line with their Spanish counterpart, decided to reopen the occupied Ceuta crossing starting Thursday.
Moroccan official sources said that the reopening will be gradual and will start around 3 am on Thursday.
Additionally, Transport and Logistics Ministry announced Monday that the reopening of maritime links between Morocco and Spain will resume starting Tuesday between the ports of Tangiers Med and the ports of Algeciras and Tarifa in Spain.
Recently, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez met with King Mohammed VI Thursday, after arriving for a two-day visit.
The two heads of states decided during the meeting to reopen key Ceuta and Melila cities, agreed to resume cooperation in migration and security, and said bilateral relations will see a new light of day.
Both sides also reached a new agreement on the extradition of migrants who arrived irregularly to the Canary Islands, by opening two new lines from the Canary Islands to Casablanca and Agadir, in addition to an existing route to Laayoune.
These moves constitute the fruit of the strengthening of diplomatic relations between both countries, after that Spain recognized Morocco’s autonomy plan on Western Sahara last month.
