Rabat: Moroccan King Mohammed is ready to offer his mediation in order to resolve the unprecedented Gulf crisis, said Morocco’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation in a communiqué on Sunday.
Amid the unprecedented crisis surrounding Qatar and its neighboring Gulf countries, Morocco has broken its silence saying King Mohammed has held extensive and permanent talks with various parties since the deterioration of their diplomatic ties; Morocco World News reported citing the ministry.
“The Kingdom of Morocco is following with great concern over the past few days the deterioration of ties between the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, the Kingdom of Bahrain, Egypt and other Arab countries on one side, and the State of Qatar on the other one,” the communiqué noted.
The King has, therefore, called on all parties to be wise in order to reduce tension, to overcome this crisis and to finally settle the causes that led to this, in accordance with the spirit which has always prevailed within the GCC, said the ministry.
The ministry added that Morocco is strongly associated with the Gulf countries in all fields despite its geographical distance, feels intimately concerned by this crisis despite it is not directly being involved.
