French Senate Delegation ‘Impressed’ by Development in Morocco's Southern Provinces
Rabat – A recent visit by a delegation of French senators to Morocco has sparked a wave of enthusiasm and admiration for the remarkable development progress in the Southern Provinces, particularly in the vibrant city of Dakhla. The delegation, composed of prominent senators including Max Brisson from the Republican Group, Pyrénées Atlantiques, highlighted the scale and ambition of ongoing projects during a press conference held after a meeting with Moroccan Foreign Minister Nasser Bourita.
“The significant projects we have witnessed firsthand have truly left us impressed,” Brisson remarked, emphasizing the transformative nature of the initiatives underway in Dakhla. The senators toured various sites, including the cutting-edge seawater desalination plant and the state-of-the-art construction site for the new Dakhla Atlantique port. These infrastructure developments are not only enhancing the region’s capabilities but also positioning Morocco as a crucial player in sustainable water management and maritime logistics.
The senators’ visit included fruitful dialogue with key regional figures such as Ali Khalil, the Wali of the Dakhla-Oued Eddahab region, and Moulay Boutal Lembarki, the Vice-President of the Regional Council. Their engagement was underscored by the warm bilateral relations between Morocco and France, strengthened by French President Emmanuel Macron’s recent state visit.
Brisson expressed optimism about the future collaboration between the two nations, remarking on the “brotherly and warm” ties that have been cultivated over the years. In a notable cultural milestone, he announced that Morocco would be the honored guest at the upcoming Paris Book Fair, an exhibition that promises to showcase the rich literary and cultural heritage of the Moroccan people.
As Morocco continues to focus on developing its southern regions, such accolades from international dignitaries further underline the country’s dedication to sustainable development and regional growth. This commitment not only enhances the local economy but also fosters greater cultural exchange and collaboration between Morocco and the international community.
With Dakhla at the forefront of these initiatives, it is becoming increasingly clear that the Southern Provinces are set to shine on both domestic and global platforms. Keep an eye on Morocco as it embraces this developmental journey, offering a model for similar regions across Africa.
