Government briefed on developments in Morocco-Spain ties
Morocco-Spain, Politics, 4/13/2002

Moroccan minister of foreign affairs and cooperation, Mohamed Benaissa, briefed the cabinet council weekly meeting on latest developments of Moroccan-Spanish relations in light of recent contacts between the two countries' officials.

The cabinet council noted an understanding (on the part of Spain) towards Morocco's claim as to the need to ponder on various pending issues between the two countries.

Moroccan-Spanish relations strained over the past few months in view of Spain's handling of bilateral ties and of Moroccan issues, especially the issue of the Moroccan Sahara. To protest Spain's stands, Morocco called back its ambassador to Madrid for consultation last October.
