Wali of northern region meets delegation from British defense academy
The wali (senior governor) of the northern region of Tangiers-Tetuan, Mohamed Halab, surveyed in Taangiers last week with a delegation from the British Royal Defense academy Morocco's efforts to curb the flow of illegal immigrants, both Moroccan and Sub-Saharan nationals.
The wali said Morocco has mobilized considerable human and material means to fight illegal immigration via its coasts to Europe, including thousands of servicemen from all national security bodies. He added Morocco has conveyed to the Spanish government a note insisting that this phenomenon concerns both Morocco and Spain and recalling that human traffickers exist on both sides of the Mediterranean.
He also recalled that organizers of illegal trips to Europe use zodiacs equipped with Spanish-made powerful engine.
