Moroccan-French prime ministers meeting: bilateral relations, international and multilateral issues
Morocco-France, Politics, 11/2/1999

The 3rd annual meeting of Moroccan and French prime ministers to convene this November 4-5 has on its agenda three major items: bilateral relations, international topics and multilateral issues.

According to French ambassador in Morocco, Michel de Bonnecorse, this "highly political" encounter will lead to important announcements regarding development projects in Morocco and the swapping of Moroccan debts.

He told Moroccan daily "Liberation" three major axes will be covered by the meeting: exchanging viewpoints on a set of international issues: the Middle East, Euro-Mediterranean projects, the situation in the Maghreb, assistance to Africa and others. Another axis will deal with assessing enforcement of decisions made a year ago in Paris and new commitments for next year regarding economic issues, major projects, and debt swapping.

The last day will be devoted to major multilateral deadlines: "we will try to harmonize our stands in the WTO meeting, the Euro-mediterranean conferences and the agenda of the European Union," said the diplomat who considered that this is a novation that reflects the exceptional level in political dialogue.
