King Mohammed VI Renews Call for Reconciliation with Algeria, Met with Silence
On the occasion of the traditional speech marking the throne festival, King Mohammed VI reiterated his outstretched hand to Algeria, which has cut ties with the Kingdom for nearly a year. So far, Algiers has been conspicuous by its silence.
Apart from the reaction of Abdelaziz Rahabi, a Algerian diplomat and former minister, no official response has been issued following the new outstretched hand of King Mohammed VI to Algeria. A source close to the file, however, reacted: "We cannot comment on a non-event," reports Algérie Focus. Clearly, Algeria is not ready to accept the Moroccan sovereign’s outstretched hand.
"We aspire to work with the Algerian presidency so that Morocco and Algeria can work hand in hand to establish normal relations between two brotherly peoples, united by History, human ties and a common destiny," the sovereign had affirmed in his speech addressed on Saturday, July 30, to the Nation on the occasion of the Throne Festival.
