The Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, Mohammed bin Salman, is expected to pay a visit to Morocco in the next few days, more precisely to Tangier, where King Mohammed VI is expected to celebrate the 24th anniversary of his accession to the throne.
The Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, Mohammed ben Salman, “should shortly go to Tangier”, report many media sources. He could stay in the palace owned by his father, King Salman, on the heights of the city of the strait, in the residential district of Jebel Kebir. If his stay in Tangiers were to be confirmed, it should coincide with that of King Mohammed VI. The sovereign should spend his holidays in the North and take the opportunity to celebrate the 24แต anniversary of his accession to the throne. A head-to-head in sight between the two personalities? No information has been made public on this subject. Their last joint public appearance dates back to April 2018. It was a chance meeting at the George-V hotel in Paris, in the presence of Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri, which was immortalized by a selfie.
A few months later, relations between Morocco and Saudi Arabia were strained due to Rabat’s neutrality in the crisis “which had opposed Riyadh as well as the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain to their Qatari neighbor. December 2021 will very fortunately mark the warming of these relations, favored by the support of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) – created under the impetus of Saudi Arabia in 1981 – for Morocco’s sovereignty over the Sahara.
