Speaking Monday in Dakhla at a press conference at the end of the 7th session of the Morocco-Guinea Joint Cooperation Commission, Morissanda Kouyaté, Guinea’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Integration and Guineans Living Abroad, stressed that the opening of a Consulate General for the Republic of Guinea in Dakhla in January 2020 “is in line with its historical position” on this issue.
“Our support has always been the same, firm and constant,” Kouyaté affirmed, welcoming “the efforts of the United Nations as the exclusive and consensual framework for reaching a realistic, practical and lasting solution to the regional dispute over the Sahara.”
The Guinean Minister also noted that “it is an honor to be at the forefront of the continuation of the path laid out by our founding fathers,” the late HM King Mohammed V and the late President Ahmed Sékou Touré, who established “inviolable, indisputable relations that we can only strengthen.”
“Morocco and Guinea are demonstrating that South-South cooperation can be an example for the rest of the world,” Kouyaté said.
The Guinean official also highlighted the “dynamism and foresight” that characterize Moroccan diplomacy in general and bilateral relations between the Republic of Guinea and the Kingdom of Morocco in particular.
Co-chaired by Nasser Bourita, Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccan Expatriates, and Morissanda Kouyaté, Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Integration and Guineans Living Abroad, the 7th session of the Morocco-Guinea Joint Cooperation Commission is part of the strengthening of the bonds of friendship and fraternity that unite Morocco and Guinea, and reflects the desire of both countries to consolidate their cooperative relations.
