Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccan Expatriates, Nasser Bourita, held a series of talks on Saturday in Banjul, The Gambia, on the sidelines of the 15th session of the Islamic Summit Conference.

Bourita held talks with Azerbaijan’s top diplomat, Jeyhun Bairamov, Türkiye’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Hakan Fidan, his counterpart from Sudan, Hussein Awad Ali, as well as with the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Regional Cooperation and Burkinabe Abroad, Karamoko Jean Marie Traoré.

These talks provided an opportunity to review relations between the Kingdom and these countries, and to examine issues of common interest.

The Moroccan minister also held talks with the Vice-Chairman of the Libyan Presidential Council, Moussa Al-Koni, and the Secretary General of the Digital Cooperation Organization, Dina Yahia.

Bourita also met on Saturday with Salem Al-Malik, Director General of the Islamic World Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (ISESCO), with whom he signed an Annex to Amend the Headquarters Agreement between this Organization and the Government of Morocco.

This is the first amendment to the agreement, 36 years after it was signed in 1988, under which the Kingdom of Morocco grants ISESCO and its staff a set of privileges.

On Thursday and Friday in the Gambian capital, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccan Expatriates held talks with several of his counterparts taking part in the Islamic Summit, which wraps up Sunday.
