The celebration of the 66th anniversary of the national day of Moroccan diplomacy is intended as a message of recognition of HM King Mohammed VI's continued commitment and constant efforts in defending national sovereignty and consolidating the Kingdom's foreign policy, said Tuesday in Rabat, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccans Abroad, Nasser Bourita.

The position of the Spanish government in support of the autonomy initiative presented by Morocco to settle the Sahara issue is a "sovereign decision," Spanish Minister for Foreign Affairs, European Union and Cooperation, José Manuel Albares, stated on Monday
