« Last year, bilateral trade amounted to nearly £3.5 billion. This is a real illustration of the potential opportunities that exist between the two countries, » Butler told the press after his meetings with the Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation, and Moroccan Expatriates, Nasser Bourita.
The United Kingdom and Morocco can develop their commercial relations in various sectors, he argued, specifying that green energy is an area that offers « huge potential for both our countries. »
In this regard, he noted that trade can serve as a locomotive, not only for economic growth but also for the development of society and the emergence of prosperous nations.
London and Rabat « maintain extremely important relations » marked by strong commercial potential, continued the special envoy of the British Prime Minister for trade in Morocco.
Rob Butler’s visit reflects the UK’s ambition to strengthen economic ties with Morocco, especially in terms of trade and investment, and to explore cooperation prospects in various sectors such as infrastructure, aerospace, healthcare, agriculture, and education.
