The meeting took place in the presence of Algerian minister of state, home minister, Yazid Zerhouni, head of the Algerian president's office, Larbi Belkheir, and members of the delegation accompanying Jettou.

The Moroccan interior minister arrived in Algiers Thursday morning, with a message from King Mohammed VI to President Abdelaziz Bouteflika.

Jettou said the delegation accompanying him will also express condolences and heartfelt sadness over the tragedy that befell friendly and brotherly Algeria.

The interior minister added that he would review with his Algerian peer, Yazid Zerhouni, means of reactivating bilateral cooperation to enhance it to the two countries' expectations.
