Five members of the French government are set to visit Morocco in April as part of official visits. Among them are the Minister of the Interior, Gérald Darmanin, and the Minister of Economy and Finance, Bruno Le Maire. These visits aim to revitalize cooperation between Rabat and Paris after months of diplomatic tensions.

According to well-informed sources, following the confirmed visit of the Minister for Foreign Trade, Frank Reister, the French Minister of Agriculture, Marc Fesneau, is expected to join the delegation to participate in the International Agriculture Show (SIAM) taking place from April 22nd to 28th in Meknes.

Simultaneously, the Minister of Economy, Bruno Le Maire, will travel to the Kingdom from April 26th to 28th to take part in the Morocco-France Investment Forum alongside several business leaders from both countries.

Meanwhile, the Minister of the Interior, Gérald Darmanin, and the Minister of Culture, Rachida Dati, are also expected to visit Morocco during the third week of April, according to the same sources.

It is worth noting that in February, the French Minister of Foreign Affairs, Stéphane Séjourné, met with his Moroccan counterpart, Nasser Bourita, in a visit perceived as a prelude to a potential thaw between Rabat and Paris.

Stéphane Séjourné expressed his willingness to open a new chapter in bilateral relations and personally committed to achieving this goal. The French Foreign Minister also expressed his country's desire to establish a new "cutting-edge" partnership for the next thirty years.
