In a move to bolster bilateral relations and explore new avenues of cooperation, Morocco's Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation, and Moroccan Expatriates, Nasser Bourita, welcomed a high-level delegation from the regional government of Piura, Peru, on Friday in Rabat.

Following the talks, Ernesto Neyra León, the Governor of the Piura Region, emphasized the importance of further strengthening the ties between Morocco and Peru, calling for diversifying the fields of collaboration and capitalizing on the immense potential that both nations possess.

Neyra León highlighted the recent signing of a twinning agreement between the Dakhla-Oued Eddahab Regional Council and the Regional Government of Piura in Dakhla on Tuesday as a tangible illustration of the mutually beneficial cooperation between the two countries.

Echoing similar sentiments, Eduardo Castillo Rivas, a member of the Peruvian Congress and spokesperson for the Fuerza Popular party in Piura, as well as a member of the Support Group for Morocco's Autonomy Initiative, underscored the significance of this twinning agreement. He emphasized its potential to breathe new life into the relations between Morocco and Peru, as the two nations commemorate the 60th anniversary of establishing diplomatic ties.

The twinning accord, inked during the Piura regional government delegation's visit, aims to bolster bilateral cooperation across numerous sectors of mutual interest, fostering a comprehensive and holistic partnership.

Seizing the opportunity, Castillo Rivas expressed his support for the establishment of a Peruvian Consulate General in the city of Dakhla, further strengthening the diplomatic presence and facilitating enhanced collaboration.
