According to the Special Envoy to the President of the French Senate for International Relations, "Morocco offers today exceptional conditions and significant assets for attracting investment, namely in the fields of the environment and renewable energies [...], making it an absolutely essential partner for France and Europe."
The two countries can also draw on the performance of their companies to strengthen their economic relations in fields as important as the aeronautics industry, artificial intelligence and so on, he told MAP. In addition, cultural cooperation features highly in bringing the two countries closer, Cambon underlined.
Hailing Moroccan diplomacy’s momentum in Africa, the French senator welcomed the distinguished presence of Moroccan companies in the continent, and hailed the Sovereign's initiatives aimed at brotherly and friendly African countries.
HM the King, he noted, has initiated a new prospect towards Africa, which can be inspiring for France to develop innovative partnerships with Africa.
"Thanks to the absolutely remarkable diplomatic work undertaken by His Majesty King Mohammed VI in Africa, consolidated by the Kingdom's return to the AU and thanks to its privileged relations with several African countries, Morocco can develop synergies for growth and triangular development that benefit everyone,” Cambon further explained.
Senator Cambon noted that the Kingdom, a pole of development and stability, today offers all the assets to be France's privileged strategic partner in all areas.
"Morocco has long been an ally, a friend, a country that has helped us a great deal, most recently in the field of security, in peace operations in the Sahel. It is home to the largest number of Francophone schools in the world. The French-speaking world is honored and developed there."
"It's a tolerant country that has always welcomed all religions to its shores, and today it welcomes sub-Saharan migrants. All these elements have forged our shared history, which has developed over time,” said the French senator.
He added that “Macron's visit to Morocco will be a great moment to celebrate our renewed, resilient and enduring partnership.”
