Morocco Rejects French Textbook with Disputed Map, Demands Withdrawal

Monday 28 October 2019, by Sylvanus

The Ministry of National Education, Vocational Training, Higher Education and Scientific Research has issued a formal denial about the approval of a French manual containing a map of Morocco amputated from its Sahara.

The work entitled "I read with Mona", published by a French publishing house (Magnard), is not on the list of approved and programmed school textbooks, indicates in a press release the Ministry of Saïd Amzazi, thus trying to cut short the rumors fueled by certain websites.

Also, the Ministry of National Education, Vocational Training, Higher Education and Scientific Research has committed to taking steps towards the withdrawal of this work.
