In a similar statement, collected on the sidelines of the dinner offered by HM the King in honor of the U.S. congressional delegation, the Democratic senator from Nevada, Jacky Rosen, thanked the Sovereign for the Moroccan”warmth and hospitality”, noting that this visit to the Kingdom was an opportunity to reflect on how to deepen the “long-standing partnership” between Rabat and Washington.
Rosen noted that the two countries are working together to achieve common goals of peace and prosperity throughout the region.
The U.S. congressional delegation, which also includes Senators Michael Bennet, Kirsten Gillibrand, Dan Sullivan, Mark Kelly and Ted Budd had met Friday with Head of Government, Aziz Akhannouch, and Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccan Expatriates, Nasser Bourita.
