Moroccans Protest Visits by Israeli Officials
Moroccan Foreign Minister Nasser Bourita met on Wednesday (June 7th) in Rabat with Israel's Homeland Security Advisor Tzachi Hanegbi."During these talks, the two parties reviewed a series of bilateral and regional issues of common interest," the Moroccan foreign ministry said without providing details.The Israeli regime and Rabat announced on December 10, 2020 the resumption of their diplomatic relations interrupted twenty years earlier in 2000.
Since the signing of an agreement to normalize diplomatic relations with Morocco, within the framework of the so-called "Abraham Accords" supported by the United States, the Israeli regime has been carrying out a vast political project to infiltrate more and more in various economic, social and cultural sectors of this Arab country.
At the same time, Tel Aviv establishes significant military cooperation with Rabat, particularly in the field of arms sales. According to experts, this Tel Aviv policy could harm the balance of power and stability in the region.
