The meeting planned in Marrakech will see the participation of foreign ministers and representatives of 80 countries and organizations," reports Le 360, citing sources close to the ministry.

During the visit he made to Rabat last March, Antony Blinken discussed the details of this major event with the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Nasser Bourita.
