Foreign Minister Holds Series of Meetings on Sidelines of EU-AU Summit in Brussels

Nasser Bourita, Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation, and Moroccans Abroad, had a series of talks on the sidelines of the sixth European Union-African Union conference in Brussels on Thursday.

Bourita, who is leading the Moroccan delegation to the summit, met with António Vitorino, Director General of the International Organization for Migration (IOM), and conducted meetings with Jean-Yves Le Drian, French Foreign Minister.

Bourita also met with Karl Nehammer, the Austrian Chancellor.

The EU-AU Summit is a new chance for Morocco to reaffirm its political commitment at the highest level, which is in accordance with the Royal Vision for a wealthy, liberated Africa capable of taking control of its destiny, through a high-level presence led by HM King Mohammed VI.

In addition to Morocco’s active participation in all segments (intergovernmental, private sector, NGOs) organized as a prelude to the summit, Morocco’s co-chairmanship of the round table on Education, Culture, Vocational Training, and Migration and Mobility, which will take place on Friday, is a mark of recognition and renewed confidence in the Kingdom’s position, thanks to the Royal leadership, with its African brothers and European friends and allies.
