Morocco-Regional, Politics, 4/16/1999
Moroccan Prime Minister Aderrahmane Youssoufi called Thursday in Rabat for Arab countries to weld ranks and enhance unity.
Opening the first session of the permanent bureau of the Arab Lawyers Union held in Rabat, the Moroccan premier called for the promotion of human rights culture in the Arab world and urged the Arab lawyers to double efforts to ensure the respect of justice and protect democracy.
The Moroccan premier hailed the stand adopted by European countries which rejected the policy of "fait-accompli" practiced by Israel in Jerusalem.
He also recalled the progress made by Morocco in matters of human rights and democracy and affirmed that additional efforts are being made to consolidate the rule of law in Morocco.
The three-day Arab lawyers meeting is tagged "the lawyer's profession: a humanitarian message and a means to reinforce human rights and democracy."
During their encounter, the Arab lawyers will review a number of issues related to the situation in the Arab world, the role of lawyers in the defense of human rights, the challenges facing barristers, the unification of Arab judiciary procedures and the evolution of international law.
