The Élysée Palace announced on Friday that French President Emmanuel Macron will make a state visit to Morocco « at the end of October, » aiming to revive bilateral relations between the two countries after a prolonged period of cooling, according to Agence France-Presse (AFP).
The announcement came after His Majesty King Mohammed VI extended an official invitation to the French president, welcoming the « promising prospects for our two countries, » as explained by the French presidency.
The visit aims to solidify ties between France and Morocco and expand cooperation in multiple sectors, especially after a period of diplomatic tension between the two countries.
