Netanyahu Reveals Plans for Moroccan Delegation Visit to Israel

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reflects on his telephone conversation with King Mohammed VI and reveals some details.

The senior Israeli official, in a video message posted on his Twitter account, revealed that he and the Moroccan sovereign had agreed that an official Moroccan delegation would visit Israel at the beginning of this week. According to Mr. Netanyahu, several issues, including the opening of diplomatic mission offices and direct air traffic between the two countries, will be discussed during this visit.

"Part of the conversation was in Arabic, which I don’t master, then in Hebrew, in French which His Majesty speaks fluently, and in English, which I speak," said the Israeli Prime Minister. "But the most important thing was the warmth of the feelings," he continued. "At the end of the conversation, I said: Your Majesty, I would like to conclude this conversation with a phrase that ends the film ’Casablanca’: ’This is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.’"
