Tunisia-Morocco, Politics, 10/6/2001

Tunisian Premier, Mohamed Ghannouchi, on Friday said his country lauds the initiative of King Mohammed VI to convene a meeting of the Mediterranean Forum.

"This is an excellent opportunity that will allow Mediterranean countries to meet and exchange views, especially in this crucial phase following the terrorist attacks against the USA," Ghannouchi told reporters at the end of a meeting of the Moroccan-Tunisian high joint commission, held in Rabat.

King Mohammed VI last week called for an extraordinary meeting of the Mediterranean forum to assess effects and consequences of last September 11 attacks against the USA.

The sovereign stressed it is important for Mediterranean countries to think jointly about the best answer to an international situation that has undergone deep changes.
