The Moroccan King’s visit to Mali: promoting Development & Peace in Africa:
The Two head of States Chaired Signature of Seventeen Bilateral Cooperation Agreements
The King of Morocco Mohammed VI and Malian president Ibrahim Boubacar Keita have chaired, on Thursday at the Koulouba presidential palace in Bamako, the signing ceremony of seventeen bilateral cooperation agreements in different areas.
The signing of these agreements marks undoubtedly the strong commitment of the public and private sectors, and illustrates the shared will by both leaders to forge ahead with the reinforcement of relations between Mali and Morocco.
It is also part of the royal integrated approach towards Africa which meets with the most sophisticated approach to reach the MDGs in Africa and puts the human capital at the center of the development process and objectives, on the basis of an equitable sharing of the development’s benefits.
These agreements also show HM the King’s commitment to fostering an active, solidarity-based south-south cooperation, which the sovereign made a basic component of Morocco’s foreign policy to serve the interests of the brotherly African peoples.
They also seek to promote human development programs given their direct impact on the amelioration of Malians’ living conditions and give momentum to economic cooperation.
Signed agreements focus chiefly on investment, Banking, agriculture , taxation, air services , industrial sector, Mining, Health, Water and Electricity, Telecommunication, trade and other developmental interventions that fit perfectly with the multifaceted approache that push towards economic progress, enlarging job market, and assisting human development designated directly for grass-root communities.
The five days visit of Morocco’s King Mohammed VI to Mali aimed also to support the country’s peace process
The visit takes place with preliminary meetings under way in Bamako ahead of peace negotiations between the government and armed insurgents in the north, including the ethnic Tuareg National Movement for the Liberation of Azawad (MNLA).
It was in fact, with Keita’s blessing, that Mohammed VI has received MNLA chief Bilal Ag Acherif in January, encouraging him back to the table with the Malian government.
Moroccan approach in mediation is strongly based on the main pillars of promoting regional security environment within the respect of integral integrity of all African countries.
