In a press release, the ministry underlined that contrary to what say certain media outlets, the said office offered the ministry its capacities of analysis and its studies on the current international experiences, and this within the framework of the national mobilization to fight the new Coronavirus (Covid-19), after the declaration of the state of health emergency.

This free of charge initiative stems from a spirit of cooperation and national solidarity that requires joint efforts to counter the Covid-19 pandemic, the statement said.
