Brazilian Foreign Minister Mauro Vieira said Friday in Rabat that Morocco stands out as an “important model” for development on the African continent.
“I have no doubt that Morocco is an important model of development in all sectors, social, economic and educational, in the region”, said the Brazilian Minister at a press briefing held after his talks with Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccan Expatriates, Nasser Bourita.
In this respect, the Brazilian FM welcomed the Kingdom's “very important” role, under the leadership of King Mohammed VI, in strengthening coordination and consultation with Brazil, in the service of the two countries' joint action at regional level.
He also stressed the importance of Morocco's support for the initiatives put forward under the Brazilian presidency of the G20, a role that will further consolidate bilateral relations between Rabat and Brasilia.
Vieira's visit to Morocco coincides with the 20th anniversary of King Mohammed VI's state visit to Brazil in 2004, which opened up “a new path of bilateral cooperation and established the fundamental lines of development of relations between the two countries”, recalled the Brazilian official.
