Spain welcomes Moroccan-French document to 55 meeting
Spain on Thursday welcomed the content of a joint document presented by Morocco and France to the 5"5 dialogue forum on migration and movement of people.
"We share the three axes of reflection proposed by the document," Spanish Foreign Minister, Ana Palacio, told MAP news agency at the end of the 5"5 dialogue forum Thursday in Sainte-Maxime, France.
The three axes that the Spanish foreign minister described as excellent relate to the contribution of migration flows to the emergence of a feeling of belonging to a common Euro-Mediterranean space, gradual standardization of legal migrants statutes; free movement of people favoring the dynamism of North-South relations.
The Moroccan-French document, adopted by 10 countries member to the 5"5 Dialogue, is meant to be a comprehensive and balanced approach to immigration, allowing for a better understanding of economic, social and political evolutions in the countries concerned.
The 5"5 dialogue forum musters the five Maghreban countries (Algeria, Libya, Mauritania, Morocco and Tunisia) and five north Mediterranean countries (France, Spain, Portugal, Italy and Malta).
