The Speaker of the House of Representatives stressed that the Kingdom of Morocco, under the enlightened leadership of HM King Mohammed VI, aspires to diversify its partners and share its experiences to serve humanity, contribute to its prosperity, consolidate peace and security in the world and support development in all its dimensions, according to the same source. Talbi El Alami also stressed the importance of coordination, joint parliamentary action, exchange of visits and sharing of experiences and expertise, noting that his visit to Japan, at the head of a parliamentary delegation, aims to support efforts to rapprochement, communication and constant dialogue between the legislative institutions of the two countries in order to strengthen bilateral and multilateral cooperation and coordination.
