Arab Parliament to Hold Emergency Meeting in Support of Morocco Amid EU Dispute

The special meeting in Cairo was decided in all responsibility to express the solidarity and support of the Arab parliament to Morocco, which is facing a crisis in which the European Parliament has interfered "unjustifiably", said Adel ben Abderrahman Al-Assoumi, president of the Arab body, who recalls that the Arab parliamentary body had warned, asking its European counterpart to refrain from intervening in this crisis which must be resolved in the bilateral framework, between Morocco and Spain.

According to Adel ben Abderrahman Al-Assoumi, the obstinacy of the European parliament to interfere in the Moroccan-Spanish crisis, by taking sides for a cause that requires in response, a serious and energetic Arab action.

"The obstinacy of the European Parliament to go ahead with its provocative positions on Arab issues, in addition to the latest resolution, rejected in full, now requires serious Arab action," he added before reiterating the firm condemnation of this resolution which contains unfounded accusations about the Kingdom’s migration policy.

The Arab Parliament says it cannot conceive of this fierce determination of the European Parliament to take on itself a bilateral crisis that can be resolved through diplomatic means and direct bilateral negotiations between the Kingdom of Morocco and Spain.
