Israel and Morocco to upgrade diplomatic ties to full embassies
Israel and Morocco have agreed to upgrade their diplomatic relations from liaison offices to full embassies, including the appointment of ambassadors. The decision was announced following meetings between foreign ministers in New York.
Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar has proposed that the European Union join Morocco and Israel in collaborative regional projects. This initiative seeks to incorporate a European dimension into the strengthened bilateral ties, which also aim to boost economic exchanges, investment protection, and direct flight options.
The diplomatic advancement has sparked domestic opposition in Morocco. The Moroccan Front for Supporting Palestine and Opposing Normalization has called for three days of protests on September 25, 26, and 27 to reject the deepening of economic, military, and security ties with Israel.
