This decision was announced by Eisenhower Nduwa, Minister for Foreign Affairs of Malawi, after being received today in Rabat by Moroccan Minister for Foreign Affairs Nasser Bourita, who considered this decision to be a step with important diplomatic connotations, especially since Morocco is now open to 24 States with diplomatic representations in its southern territories.
