Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccan Expatriates, Nasser Bourita, received the envoy of the President of the Libyan Presidential Council, Sami Al-Menfi.
The Libyan envoy carried a written message from the exiled head of the Libyan Presidential Council, Mohamed Younes, to King Mohammed VI.
A source close to the Libyan Presidential Council confirmed through MAP that it rejects any attempt to create an alternative framework to the Arab Maghreb Union, stressing the need to strengthen this regional group, which was founded in Marrakech in 1989.
The Libyan sources expressed their thanks for the steadfast and continuous support provided by the Kingdom of Morocco under the leadership of the King in the Libyan cause, which is reflected in several agreements, including the agreements of Skhirat, Bouznika and Tangier, according to the Libyan news agency “Lamap”.
The Libyan envoy stressed the role of the Kingdom of Morocco in settling the Libyan crisis and provided its full support to achieve a series of agreements, noting that the Skhirat agreement concluded in 2015 remains essential and a reference for resolving the Libyan issue.
These meetings and statements come in the context of Algeria’s continued efforts to form a Maghreb bloc that includes Algeria, Tunisia, and Libya without Morocco, while Mauritania withdrew from this proposal, in light of the faltering Arab Maghreb Union, which was founded in 1989.
Yesterday, the presidents of Tunisia and Algeria and the president of the Libyan Presidential Council met at a tripartite summit at the Carthage Palace in Tunis to discuss strengthening cooperation between the three countries.
