A Moroccan delegation in Israel to prepare for launch of liaison office- Moroccan media

A first Moroccan delegation was sent to Israel for a visit that will prepare the ground for a high-key one in the upcoming days, Moroccan media reported.

The delegation is made of foreign ministry staff that will inspect the location of the Moroccan liaison office and prepare for a much larger delegation in the upcoming days, different media including le360 and AFP reported citing a source requesting not to be named.

The visit was announced by Israeli Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu following a phone call with King Mohammed VI last week.

Morocco and Israel agreed to resume normal ties and reopen the liaison offices that were closed in 2000.

An American-Israeli delegation, led by Security Adviser Maer Ben Shabbat and Senior White House Advisor Kushner, visited Morocco last week and signed a joint declaration stressing commitment to the proclamation made by President Donald Trump in support of Moroccan sovereignty over the Sahara and for the resumption of Moroccan Israeli ties.

In this respect, ledesk.ma and Le360.ma said that RAM plans to launch direct flights starting mid-January. The news was not officially confirmed yet.
The 5-hour non-stop service will be running four times per week aboard Dreamliner planes, these media said.

Meanwhile, industry ministry Moulay Hafid Alamy held talks online with his Israeli Peer Amir Peretz on the prospects for bilateral cooperation in the fields of textile, agri-food, green technology and renewable energies.
